MARTINSVILLE, Va. - Steve Shelor has been promoted to the newly created position of vice president, upholstery operations for Hooker Furniture.
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.
