Young America, Stanley Furniture Companyʼs leading brand of infant and youth furniture, announced the second of three grand prize winners of its Winter Sales Associate Appreciation Event.

On December 1, 2009, the company introduced to its Young America retail locations a three-month promotion designed to encourage sales associates to test their proficiency of the new Young America brand. According to Kevin Bowman, Senior VP of Sales & Customer Service for Stanley Furniture, this new generation of the brand is backed by a lasting promise to its customers to be “the brand you can trust.” This promise consists of four fundamental components – choice, safety, green and quality.

“Weʼre very pleased with the outcomes of this promotion,” said Glenn Prillaman, President & CEO of Stanley Furniture Company. “Our goal has been to encourage, engage and empower the retail sales associate when it comes to representing the new Young America. Thereʼs no doubt that this promotion has succeeded in accomplishing Prillaman added, “Iʼd like to extend a warm congratulations to Koren and our retail partner, Jalikan, for supporting Young Americaʼs promise to be ʻthe brand you can Young Americaʼs Winter Retail Sales Associate Appreciation Event concluded on February 28, 2010.
