Andrews wins IHFC's 1st Spilman award

By Furniture Today Staff -- Furniture Today, January 25, 2010

HIGH POINT —

Mark Andrews, Design Center manager at the International Home Furnishings Center here, has won the IHFC's first Robert H. Spilman Spirit of Excellence Award.

The new award is named for Spilman, the late CEO of Bassett Furniture Inds., who led a buyout of the IHFC in 1985 and became its chairman.

Andrews joined the IHFC in 2003. Tom Mitchell, IHFC president, said in presenting the award that it represents the qualities that Spilman would have wanted to recognize — “a loyal performer who is customer-service oriented, and an engaged team player who leads by example.”

Andrews was presented with a silver bowl, a replica of the award that will remain on display in the IHFC executive office lobby. It will be engraved each year with the name of the annual recipient.
