Industry supplier Leggett & Platt, which has headquarters in Carthage, Mo., has named Mark Quinn director of marketing for its Residential Furnishings Segment, a newly created post.
The business unit accounts for more than half of the company’s total sales and includes a number of divisions: U.S. Spring, International Spring, Furniture Hardware, Seating and Distribution, Consumer Products, Fabric Converting, Carpet Underlay and Geo Components.
Quinn previously was executive vice president of sales and marketing for the Bedding Group.
“In the past four years Mark has spent working for our company, he has demonstrated a unique understanding of not only our direct customers, but also of what drives the ultimate consumer toward our products,” said Perry Davis, president of L&P’s Bedding Group. “His innovative approach to marketing continues to drive demand for both our products and services.”
Prior to joining L&P, Quinn spent nine years at Serta where he rose to vice president of business development. Before that, he was an account representative and field sales manager for Sealy and Stearns & Foster.
