Quick-Step Ranking Reflection Of Strong Distribution Model
Dallas, November 21, 2013 – Quick-Step, the style, innovation, and technology leader in laminate flooring, was voted “#1 In Product Availability” in the 2013 RECO Market Intelligence Report. Scoring first place in product availability out of all industry competitors is a definite reflection of the strong distribution/service model Quick-Step has in place across the country.

“Quick-Step brings product to market solely via our nationwide network of the finest independent distributors,” said Shane Calloway, vice president of Unilin’s North American independent distribution (Unilin is Quick-Step’s parent company). “Quick-Step’s distributor partners continue to be a successful sales channel for our products. Their competence is reflected in our ability to earn the #1 slot in product availability in this prestigious survey.”

The RECO survey is conducted annually by an independent research firm to objectively rank the standing of top brands within the retail flooring industry. The results are published in the RECO
Market Intelligence Report sponsored by Floor Covering Weekly magazine. This year’s report measured feedback from over 800 respondents, 90% of whom are floor covering retailers. According to professional testing standards, this number of respondents ensures that the survey’s results reflect a true picture of the general opinions of the floor covering retailer community.
