About Us

With over 260 locations in the U.S. and Canada, Floor Coverings International is the fastest-growing custom floor franchise in the industry. Low ownership costs, large, exclusive territories, and a recession-resistant business model with unlimited profit-potential are just a few reasons why now is the perfect time to become a Floor Coverings International franchisee.

Floor Coverings International has a unique business model that brings the showroom directly to a customer’s home, which appeals to customers with busy lifestyles. Our customers meet with a design representative in the safety and comfort of their own home. It’s convenient and it’s easier for them to envision their new flooring when they are able to experience our extensive array of design options, styles, and colors in their home environment.

Industry Facts:

  • The flooring industry is a 100 Billion Dollar market in North America.
  • The industry is highly fragmented with over 50 companies making up the top 10%. Due to the fragmentation and the poor big box buying experience, market share is easily obtained.
  • Purchasing flooring is highly inconvenient - we are an alternative to big boxes and makes purchasing flooring for your home easy.

Why Franchise with Us

  • Low overhead - no brick-and-mortar storefront
  • Few Employees - Owners use contract labor and 2-3 salespeople
  • Quality - we have national accounts with all major manufacturers

Ideal Candidate

  • Can lead, hire, and inspire a team
  • Have strong soft skills and enjoy networking
  • Have business acumen

Our franchise owners do not install flooring! Instead, our executive model business requires the franchise owner to be the CEO. We ask our franchisees to first learn the business and fill the roles of Design Associate (sales) and Project Coordinator before hiring an office manager and Design Associate.

Training and Support

Floor Coverings International franchise owners benefit from one of the most comprehensive and robust training and ongoing support platforms in the entire industry. We’re committed to helping you thrive, exceed your goals, and become your community’s go-to-brand for custom flooring solutions. Training and support program details: New franchisee training programs total 20 days over 1st year.
