Carpet One Floor & Home, the largest floorcovering retail network in North America, has announced an ambitious expansion strategy that will add 250 new stores across the United States and Canada over the next five years.
The growth initiative will focus on helping existing members expand their businesses while attracting new independent flooring retailers to join the Carpet One network.
Investment in Store Development
As part of the expansion plan, Carpet One is introducing an enhanced package of store development services designed to support retail growth. The new program includes financing solutions, real estate assistance, full-service store development, and site evaluation services to simplify expansion for independent flooring retailers.
The company has also expanded its internal market development team to identify new growth opportunities and support members throughout the development process.
Dean Marcarelli, Co-Chief Operating Officer of Carpet One, said the retailer has traditionally grown through member acquisition and now plans to complement that strategy by encouraging existing members to open additional locations.
According to Marcarelli, expanding successful member-owned businesses represents the next stage in the company’s long-term retail growth strategy.

Strong Growth in the Flooring Market
Carpet One currently operates more than 1,000 independently owned flooring stores across North America, generating approximately US$3 billion in annual sales.
Over the past five years, the retailer reports that average sales have increased by approximately 35% annually, reflecting continued demand for residential flooring and home renovation products.
Focus on Independent Retailers
Unlike many large retail chains, Carpet One operates through a cooperative network of independent specialty flooring retailers.
The company attributes its competitive position to personalized customer service, competitive pricing, comprehensive product warranties, and an extensive portfolio of flooring products, including carpet, hardwood, laminate, vinyl, tile, and area rugs.
The latest expansion plan is expected to further strengthen Carpet One’s position as North America’s largest floorcovering retailer while creating new opportunities for independent flooring businesses to expand under a recognized retail brand.
