Colonial Mills, Inc., a manufacturer of braided-texture area rugs, named Roy Evans as vice president of sales and marketing. A 30-year veteran of the floor covering industry, Evans reports directly to cmi president, Donald M. Scarlata.

Evans brings experience in top level sales, marketing and management roles at several major rug manufacturers. Prior to his current position, he served as executive director of national sales for Feizy Import & Export Co., Inc. in Dallas, and got his start in the industry as business manager at Milliken & Co., La Grange, Ga.

“Roy’s experience and expertise will facilitate our next step in the company’s growth plan,” Scarlata said. “He’s built strong relationships over the years with the top retailers in the industry and we’re looking forward to benefiting from his knowledge and network of contacts.”

For Evans, joining cmi offers an opportunity to help a mid-sized company he's long admired. “I’m excited to join a business with such a solid reputation,” said Evans. “We’ll look to leverage our manufacturing capability, design know-how and ‘made in the USA’ commitment to grow to the next level.”
