Area and accent rug company Nourison Industries Inc. has promoted three sales executives and reorganized the company's sales structure to be managed from its headquarters here.

Gerard O'Keefe, who joined the company in 2002 as vp of the broadloom division, has been appointed vp of sales.

Patrick Malone is being promoted to national sales director of broadloom from his prior post as Northeast regional sales manager.
