E.B. Walthall

ATLANTA — Pure LatexBliss has promoted bedding veteran E.B. Walthall to vice president of sales for North America, a new position at the company.

Walthall was hired earlier this year by the latex bedding producer to lead sales for its Eastern division.

Before joining Pure LatexBliss, Walthall spent seven years as vice president of sales at International Bedding Corp., overseeing the company's largest region. Prior to that, Walthall worked as a sales representative and production manager at Simmons.

"Industry insiders know that passion is our company's greatest strength and focus is one of our greatest values," said Pure LatexBliss President Kurt Ling. "With these values in mind, it made sense for us to promote E.B. from within because he knows our culture. In addition to his sales leadership skills and broad experience in operations, merchandising, and sales management within the industry, he is a natural coach and mentor to our growing team."
