RICHMOND, Calif. — Industry veteran Jeff Schwall has joined case goods manufacturer and importer Brownstone Furniture in the newly created position of executive vice president, sales and marketing.

Schwall most recently was senior vice president of U.S. sales for Canadian manufacturer Shermag and earlier was in sales and marketing at Lexington Home Brands.

“Jeff has a reputation for exhibiting the energy and integrity that we feel is a perfect fit for us,” Brownstone owners Chris and Reed Kingsley said in a statement. “His extensive experience of fulfilling dealers’ needs will certainly be an asset to our company.”

Schwall called Brownstone a “dynamic young company” that continues to grow by pursuing creative and innovative designs to meet consumer needs.

At next month’s High Point Market, Brownstone will show in the International Home Furnishings Center, D-1001.
