Monticello, AR — Burlington Rugs and Monticello Floors recently appointed two new executives to lead its manufacturing facilities here. Bob Pfautz has been named svp, gm, and Larry Jeffers is director of manufacturing. Both report to Saeid Korhani, chairman and ceo.

The company created the new posts to streamline operations to meet growth in current orders and future demand projections from its key customers.

Pfautz spent the past 20-plus years working for Century Tube Corporation, most recently as president and coo. Jeffers is a 30-year veteran of the carpet and rug manufacturing industry. He returns to the Monticello facility, which he operated from 1995 to 1999.
