Schenectady Floor Covering Expanding

Schenectady, NY, Sept. 23, 2010--Schenectady Floor Covering will nearly double in size and consolidate its retail and wholesale divisions after buying a former steel fabrication plant, according to Albany Business Review.

The company sells carpets, tiles and hardwood flooring at its retail store and also supplies home builders from its warehouse.

Buying the 36,000-square-foot manufacturing plant enables Schenectady Floor Covering to put its retail and wholesale divisions under one roof, the newspaper said.

Part of the strategy in making the move is to display products in a large showroom, similar to what customers have come to expect when shopping at Home Depot and Lowe’s.
