Journey
Our story is the story of our customers – and of our commitment to providing them with the products they need: products that are innovative, sustainable, have value and are competitively priced. That was our commitment 63 years ago, when we began as Star Dye Company, a small business in Dalton, Georgia that dyed tufted scatter rugs. And it’s still our commitment today. In fact, the philosophy that has guided our expansion to a global organization with 26,000 associates and several billion dollars in sales isn’t much different from our original commitment:
Get to know your customers, understand their needs, and exceed them.
The events that have transformed our company since 1946 are numerous, but our desire to be the country’s leading flooring provider has always been a driving factor in our growth. From the acquisitions that brought names such as Cabin Crafts and Sutton under the Shaw umbrella, to the merger of Shaw and Queen Carpets, and our 2001 acquisition by Berkshire Hathaway, Inc., our commitment to our core values of honesty, integrity and hard work has never faltered. In fact, they illustrate our commitment to staying on top in an ever-changing marketplace.
