Mohawk Industries Joins Growing HomeSphere Network of Preferred Manufacturers

    DENVER, CO, January 30, 2014 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Today, Lakewood-based HomeSphere Inc. announced that Mohawk Industries will join BRI, its growing digital lead-generation and customer loyalty platform, opening up new revenue opportunities for the brand.

Mohawk, the largest flooring company in the world, will connect HomeSphere's growing builder network to the wide range of quality flooring products it has provided for more than 130 years to residences throughout North America. With complete programs for carpet, hardwood, laminate, vinyl, ceramic tile and natural stone, many leading builders and property management firms rely on Mohawk for all types of flooring.

"With our extensive portfolio of high-quality brands and large spectrum of options, Mohawk keeps homeowners and residents satisfied - which keeps our partners satisfied," said Mohawk Vice President of Builder and Multi Family Sales David Holt. "HomeSphere connects us to a much broader base of homebuilders that can benefit from our dedicated customer service and extensive distribution network, which protects product availability, reduces program complexity and cost, and ensures on-time delivery."

Mohawk joins more than 80 preferred building product manufacturer brands in 23 product categories using HomeSphere BRI and its industry-first digital marketing services to connect with local and regional builders who constructed 14 percent of the new single-family homes built in the United States in 2013.

By connecting the homebuilding universe more directly through technology, HomeSphere BRI creates value throughout the residential construction industry, delivering measurable results to top building product manufacturers, home builders and service providers.

"Mohawk consistently has been lauded for its sustainability practices and commitment to environmental responsibility," said HomeSphere Vice President of Sales Chris Toth. "It is constantly making cost-saving and quality-control advancements, and HomeSphere's platform can't help but benefit a company with Mohawk's substantial depth and resources, as well as service and support customers might expect only from a company a fraction of its size."
