Lumber Liquidators (NYSE: LL) began in 1993 when Tom Sullivan, a building contractor, began purchasing excess wood that other companies didn't need and reselling it from the back of a trucking yard in Stoughton, Massachusetts. The company found its niche market in hardwood flooring. The first store opened on January 5, 1996 in West Roxbury, Massachusetts selling 150 sq ft of flooring the first day. Eight months later, a second store opened in Hartford, Connecticut and from there the increase continued.
The company moved headquarters from Boston to Colonial Heights, Virginia in 1999. By 2004 the company was bursting at the seams and moved headquarters to its current location, a 306,000 sq ft production center in Toano, Virginia. Over the past 20 years the company has grown steadily, with stores in 46 states and over 1000 employees. Lumber Liquidators has hundreds of locations in the US and Canada and continues to expand throughout North America.
Lumber Liquidators prides itself on having one of the largest inventories of prefinished and unfinished hardwood floors in the industry. There are flooring experts in every store ready to help, and free samples are available. Lumber Liquidators carries solid and engineered hardwood, laminate flooring, bamboo flooring, cork flooring, vinyl flooring, wood-look tile flooring, butcher blocks, moldings, accessories and tools.
Lumber Liquidators negotiates directly with the mills, eliminating the middleman and passing the savings on to the customers. The environmentally conscientious company only purchases from suppliers who practice sustainable harvesting, which allows forests to heal and re-grow faster. Everything Lumber Liquidators sells (unless specified otherwise) is first-quality, graded to industry specifications, and available in standard flooring lengths.

The Elkay Manufacturing Company began as a vision of Leopold Katz and his son Louis on the North side of Chicago back in 1920. Founded with the goals of manufacturing the highest quality sinks and providing the best service possible, the company began to thrive. As time went by, we set the pace with new products, designs and innovations that continue to lead the industry.
To meet the demands of a changing marketplace, over the years we've expanded from our base business to include the manufacture of water coolers and fountains. Recently, we broadened our scope to address the emerging world market of water filtration products and now offer our customers the benefits of our extensive research. With the acquisition of a global commercial interior design company - Elkay Interior Systems - we began serving the quick-serve restaurant and hospitality industries with award-winning, turnkey commercial branded interiors.
Throughout our growth and expansion, Elkay has continued to recognize and respect the value and commitment that each employee brings to the company. Our strength is in our people and we reward them for their hard work with respect, job satisfaction, and increased opportunity.
We are now a family of companies that employ over 2,600 people in production and distribution facilities throughout North America and around the world As the Elkay family expands nationally and globally, our commitment stays the same: complete customer satisfaction, continuous improvement, and deep employee engagement.
We are in business forever.
