He will be responsible for operations at Hooker's Hickory, N.C.-based Bradington-Young and Bedford, Va.-based Sam Moore divisions.

Shelor, who reports to Alan Cole, president of Hooker Furniture Upholstery, has been vice president and general manager of custom seating specialist Sam Moore since November 2009.

In his expanded role, Shelor will be responsible for finance, administration, purchasing, information technology and engineering functions at leather specialist Bradington-Young and will continue to oversee Sam Moore operations, including manufacturing.

"This expansion of Steve's responsibilities for Hooker Upholstery operations underscores the positive impact that he has had on Sam Moore, and better enables the pursuit of joint efforts at both companies to take advantage of each company's unique strengths," Cole said. "We are excited to have an executive of Steve's caliber who can play a broader role in helping lead our upholstery efforts."

Before joining Hooker, Shelor was with Rowe Furniture for 31 years in executive positions, most recently as vice president of manufacturing operations for the company's Clayton Marcus division.
