Thad Pettyjohn has retired from his post as vice president of sales and marketing for Jamison Bedding—a job he held for 30 years. His replacement is Ken Hinman, former vice president of global sales, marketing and design at Hartmann Inc.
Pettyjohn continues to serve the Brentwood, Tenn.–based company as a senior consultant and will assist Hinman during a transition period.
“We are going to miss Thad’s leadership, his extensive product knowledge and wisdom. We wish him much success in a long–deserved retirement,” said Frank Gorrell III, Jamison Bedding president and chief executive officer.
Hinman has more than 25 years of experience in sales management and product development. Most recently, he oversaw sales and marketing for Hartmann, a luggage and leather case producer. Prior to that, he was with Federated Department Stores, Elizabeth Arden and Revlon.
He is a graduate of the University of Mississippi.
