Park Named CEO at Hyundai L&C USA
ATLANTA — Hyundai L&C USA LLC promoted Brian Park CEO, effective at the start of this year.
Brian ParkPark arrived at Hyundai L&C USA in November 2019 as executive vice president of sales, marketing & operations. He began working for Hanwha L&C in 2007 in marketing and mangement at the company’s Korea base, and made the transition to Hyundai L&C when it acquired Hanwha L&C in 2018.
In 2020, Park guided sales, marketing, product development, product management and operations responsibilities for Hyundai L&C. Under Park’s guidance and leadership, the HanStone Quartz and Hanex Solid Surfaces brands enjoyed record sales in spite of the COVID-19 pandemic.
He’ll add human resources, accounting and P&L as part of the promotion. H.S. Kim, president of Hyundai L&C North America, will continue to support Park to be successful in his new role.
“My vision for Hyundai L&C is to be a market leader in surfaces within the next few years and successfully establish our flooring products in the US, and, someday, other interiors product categories, some of which we already sell in Korea.” Park said. “By expanding our product portfolio, we’ll add value to our customers and help them to have a more-efficient and -fulfilling buying and ownership experience, whether they are a trade professional, a homeowner or a building owner.
“But, most important, I want for our company to make a positive difference in peoples’ lives… our employees, our customers and our communities. Our products play a role in an elevated standard of living and enjoyment of life, and that simple idea is really why our company exists. It guides us every day.
“I’m really proud of our team for their performance and dedication in this challenging year, and I owe my success and the company’s success to them.”
