Furniture World Magazine

Pacific Sun Casual Furniture announces the appointment of Gregory Johnson as Sales Manager. With more than 25 years of sales management experience, Johnson’s wealth of expertise will help Pacific Sun expand its presence in the hospitality, multi-family housing, and retail markets. Among Johnson’s key responsibilities will be development of new accounts, servicing of existing customers, and coordination of the growing factory representative group, in order to deliver quality casual furniture with meaningful personal service. "Mr. Johnson is a great asset to our growing management team," said Peter Sweetland, president of Pacific Sun. "He has a proven track record in establishing sales programs that deliver solid results to both customers and company. Plus, his familiarity with the requirements of the hospitality industry put him in a position to immediately jump in and make a significant contribution to our organization." Johnson’s appointment follows the recent addition of Director of Marketing Nancy Sidoruk and January’s one-year anniversary of the acquisition of Pacific Sun Casual Furniture by The Winsford Corporation of Century City, CA. Winsford added the casual furniture manufacturer to its portfolio to more broadly serve the hospitality and related markets. With Pacific Sun’s lines of pool, patio, and outdoor dining furniture, Winsford companies now provide an even more complete product suite to their customers, particularly in the increasingly competitive hospitality market. Before joining Pacific Sun, Johnson served in various sales management capacities for companies including Eiki International, Anchor Audio, and Microaudio, Inc. Johnson holds a Bachelor of Arts from Indiana University in Bloomington, Indiana.
