Kimball Home recently announced the addition of four sales representatives to its rapidly growing team. They are as follows: Tom Houston will represent Kimball Home in Nebraska and most of Iowa (excluding Scott County). He is based in Omaha, NE. Bruno Putorti will cover the Canadian provinces of Ontario and Quebec, as well as the Maritime Provinces (New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, Newfoundland and Nova Scotia).

"Our sales team is really growing!" exclaims Robert Cribbs, Kimball Home's Director of Sales and Marketing. "It's a good feeling, especially considering how our collections have mushroomed over the past few years. I hope everyone will stop by our new Market on Main showroom and meet our new reps. They are all enthusiastic about making Kimball Home a major force in the home furniture industry."
