Oriental Weavers reported that it has tapped seasoned sales professional, Susan Holley, as its new Vice President, National Accounts. In her new role, Holley will be responsible for overseeing and managing the growth of key national accounts for the company. Prior to joining OW, Holley served as Key Account Manager with rug and accessory distributor, Surya. Before then, she held sales leadership positions in two large and well-known consumer product companies in the food and beverage industry.

Holley brings over 20 years of consumer product sales leadership to Oriental Weavers’ national accounts team. Although heavily experienced and knowledgeable in the rug and textile industries, Holley’s breadth of professional sales involvement is vast and spans across several industries, allowing her to bring a fresh approach and invaluable insight of best practices utilized by other consumer product leaders. Holley has enjoyed tremendous success throughout her career, earning many company awards for outstanding sales performance, account growth and management.

“We are thrilled to have Susan bring her talents and fresh perspective to our national accounts team,” said Jonathan Witt, Senior Vice President of Oriental Weavers. “Susan’s rug experience obviously speaks volumes and affords her the ability to dive in and make a considerable impact immediately. Additionally, the fact that we will be able to tap into her expansive sales knowledge and best practice expertise in general is even that much more exciting. I am confident Susan will prove to be an incredible addition to our team and we look forward to further enhancing our retail partnerships through her efforts.”

“I am excited to join the Oriental Weavers team,” added Holley. “Not only have they been a proven industry leader for decades, they are truly customer focused and do what it takes to put their retailer partners’ and consumers’ needs first. That is a special quality and I’m eager to put that to work for my customers.”
Holley will be based in the company’s Dalton, Georgia headquarters.
