Chromcraft Revington, Inc. announced that Dennis Valkanoff, Senior Vice President of Chromcraft-Revington, Inc., has been named President of CR-Home, the company’s residential furniture division. In his newly expanded role, Valkanoff will have overall P/L responsibilities for the residential furniture business, and will be responsible for the integration of the Company’s residential furniture sales and marketing functions as well as management of its product life cycle. He will continue to report directly to Anderson-Ray, assuming responsibilities previously held by David R. Corbin who resigned from the company. “This integration will provide greater coordination and alignment between sales activities, product management and marketing activities for our residential furniture business,” said Ben Anderson-Ray, Chairman and CEO of Chromcraft Revington, Inc. “It parallels the structure of our commercial furniture business, and constitutes another important step in repositioning the Company in the global furniture marketplace.” Valkanoff will be supported by Brenda Dillon, who joined the company earlier this year as Vice President of Product Management and Merchandising for CR-Home, and Boyd Barnhardt, Director of Marketing for CR-Home. Dillon, a former merchandise manager of occasional, home entertainment, home office and accent furniture for Broyhill Furniture Industries, will assume overall merchandising and category responsibility for CR-Home occasional, upholstery and bedroom product. Chromcraft Revington businesses design, manufacture and market residential and commercial furniture throughout the United States.
