Floor Coverings International Franchise
Floor Coverings International is an enterprise that allows our customers to shop for all manner of flooring from the privacy of their home, ordering from our diverse collection of hardwood, tiling, and laminate selections. Our franchisees then send their experienced teams to meet with the clients, evaluate the rooms and floor selections, and oversee the project through completion.
What's interesting and has made this franchise a tremendous opportunity is that we do not expect the franchisees themselves to be flooring experts. Instead, we prefer savvy businesspeople to handle the office affairs, putting together a team of professionals who can go and get the job done on work sites.
To buy a franchise with Floor Coverings International, you'll need to have at least $50,000 in liquid capital and a minimum net worth of $200,000. Floor Coverings International charges a franchise fee of $57,900. They also offer a discount for veterans.

Values & History
Founded in 1988 in Atlanta, Georgia, Floor Coverings International can boast 22 years of successful franchising both domestically and internationally. We know that homeowners want their floors to look spectacular and be practical for the kind of room it is. There are so many options available that it can be overwhelming. That is why each franchise has design associates to meet with the customers during their planning stages, to help them find the perfect floor or carpet to make each room perfect.
Because of this process of sending a professional to assist customers who might make poor choices and regret the design after the floor has already been installed, and once the right choice has been properly made, sending in top notch workers to make it exactly what is envisioned, we have won awards for our business concept and execution.
Industry Performance
Having a successful business for multiple decades takes the ability to constantly evolve. Not only do we seek out and acquire the most gorgeous and high-quality materials to provide flooring and carpeting opportunities for our customers, but we also change with the times. As fads and trends come and go, our selection remains diverse to ensure that customers can always get what they want directly from us.
As for our customer base? Everyone who owns a home or business, local and state governments, even military bases and hospitals need great floors. From private customers to landlords who want to renovate apartment buildings or office complexes, there is always an unlimited supply of potential revenue streams for the savvy entrepreneur.
Training & Support
We have a comprehensive training program that optionally can last up to 120 hours in a classroom experience at the home office, and additionally offers 10 hours of on-the-job training. You will not be taught how to lay down flooring or aspects of design.
Instead, the focus for franchisees is strictly on how to recruit professionals who can do those tasks, and all the impactful ways of correctly running this enterprise to a huge level of success. Because we have been succeeding at this for decades on a global scale, we know that keeping our business owners on task and focused on business operations while letting others handle the work for the client has created a winning business model that allows any intelligent and diligent franchisee succeed at a high level.
We go far beyond teaching and informing after the class is done. Throughout the life of your business you will be invited to our closed seminars and have access to high level experienced executives at the central office who will enable and empower you to triumph over any obstacle.
Ideal Candidate & Qualifications
As previously noted, you don't need to know anything about the flooring or carpeting business. We'll teach you everything about the specifics of how to do it during our training program, and through our other modes of constant learning and information sharing.
