Shifman Mattresses has announced strategic leadership appointments as part of its plans for expansion in 2025. Jeff Quinn has been named vice president of sales, Andi Jones has been promoted to director of product development and training, and Addie Preston has joined as director of national accounts.

Leadership Appointments

Jeff Quinn, an industry veteran with over 30 years of experience in retail, manufacturing, and digital sectors, will oversee all sales operations, including strategic partnerships, brand growth, and retail relationships. He works closely with company president Bill Hammer and Mark Quinn, senior vice president of sales and marketing.

Quinn began his career as a Mattress Firm franchisee, building one of the company’s most successful multi-unit operations before selling it back and moving into corporate leadership. He later co-founded Spink & Co., a farm-to-bed luxury mattress brand.

“Our people are the cornerstone of our company, and 2025 will be a major growth year for Shifman, so we need to make sure we have the right talent in place to help us make our retail partners successful in the luxury bedding category,” said Bill Hammer, president of Shifman Mattresses. “Shifman’s unique position as a family-owned and operated business for 132 years that has always done business with other family-run businesses provides us great insight into how those bonds can drive success for all parties.”

Product Development and National Accounts

Andi Jones, who joined Shifman in 2023, has been promoted from territory sales manager to a dual leadership role overseeing product development and sales team training. She will manage the development of premium mattress collections while leading training programs to support retailers in the luxury bedding market.

“Andi is amazing. Her experience as a retailer gives her the skills she needs to help our team help our customers win,” said Mark Quinn, SVP of sales and marketing. “Andi’s sense of style, her love and appreciation for the details, and her expertise in the luxury category will make her the best product designer in the industry.”

Addie Preston has joined Shifman as director of national accounts, focusing on retail partnerships and business development. She brings experience from Purple, Sinomax/Dormeo, Tempur-Sealy, and Mattress Firm, where she worked in national account management and strategy.

“Addie’s extensive experience and strategic mindset make her an excellent fit for this role,” said Jeff Quinn, VP of sales. “She has a proven track record of building strong retail partnerships and driving meaningful growth. We are confident that her leadership and industry expertise will bring tremendous value to both our company and our retail partners as we continue to expand and innovate.”

High Point Market Presence

Shifman Mattress Co. will showcase its team and products at High Point Market next month at 108 E. Martin Luther King, Jr. Drive, 3rd Floor.
