| Article | Dallas, November 22, 2013 – Quick-Step is carried by 95% of the top retailers nationwide, according to the “Top 50 Retailers” for 2013 report, published by Floor Covering Weekly. Quick-Step feels that partnering with strong distributors is definitely a key factor in gaining an audience with these top retailers initially. This is just one more reason why the brand values their strong distributor partnerships so highly. “95% of the Top 50 Retailers across the nation are carrying our product … Now that’s exciting!” said Shane Calloway, vice president of North American independent distribution for Unilin (Quick-Step’s parent company). “This extraordinary retail presence is due in part to having such a great network of top-notch distributors. The trust built up between a distributor and its retailers allows us to gain entry into key retailers at a ‘hit the ground running’ pace.” “Because our distributor network is so strong, no time is lost through laboriously having to start from scratch to gain a presence in top retail stores,” added Calloway. “The initial battle of getting into the right retailers is made easier. Just one more reason why Quick-Step plans to continue with our proven distribution channel.” “As a manufacturer, we continually service our distributors’ dealers with the industry’s best designs, a superior level of realism, natural texture, cutting-edge technology and innovation, consistent quality, low claims rates, NALFA certification, some of the best warranties in the industry, and excellent customer service/product availability — all at an attractive price,” concludes Calloway.
