CALHOUN, Ga.–Due to “tremendous growth,” Riztex USA has named Stacey Vega to the new position of director of sales for its Home Texco division and JC Lehnen as creative director of the Rizzy Rugs division.
Reporting to Mark Ferullo, vice president, Riztex, Vega has many years of experience in bedding and textiles and will be directing those sales of the company as well as overseeing its expansion.
Lehnen has previously been with Jaipur Rugs as design director, and Ballard Design and Smith and Noble as rug buyer. Ferullo added that Lehnen has already made an impact, as Rizzy was awarded a visual award display for the third floor of Building 1 at AmericasMart at the recent Atlanta International Area Rug Show.
Shauna Snyder, who oversaw the creative direction for both Rizzy Rugs and Home Texco, will now focus solely on Home Texco.
“We are experiencing tremendous growth in our third year in the United States and we are thrilled to have these extremely talented professionals as part of our team,” Ferullo said.
