Fort Mill, S.C. —

Springs Industries recently welcomed back to its floor covering executive staff Kris Honeyman, who has been appointed president of its decorative flooring division.

He reports to Tom O'Connor, executive vice president.

Honeyman is responsible for the category's overall business, which the company described as an “integral component of Springs' home furnishings portfolio.”

He first came to Springs in early 2002 as part of the company's acquisition of Beaulieu Rugs, and played a significant role in integrating the new business into Springs. In 2003, he left Springs but continued to do consulting for the company.

Honeyman's rug industry experience includes marketing, sales, product development, international work, operations and general management, the company noted.
