Armstrong Flooring Names Shnier Residential Distributor of the Year New Thomas Armstrong Awards Recognize Excellence in Distribution

LANCASTER, Pa., February 20 2017 – Armstrong Flooring has announced Shnier as Residential Distributor of the Year. The first annual Thomas Armstrong Awards honors distributors who exemplify integrity, a resilience of spirit and deep dedication to their customers.

“Our founder, Thomas Armstrong, set forth to ‘Let the Buyer Have Faith,’ standing behind products to give each customer confidence in their purchase,” said President & CEO Don Maier. “This way of doing business set us apart then, and it sets us apart now, along with our ability to collaborate and innovate for the people we are here to serve–distributors, retailers and consumers.”

Over the past 75 years, Shnier has grown to become a dominant force in the Canadian floor covering industry. By providing fashionable and contemporary products, comprehensive integrated marketing programs, and industry leading logistical services, Shnier has earned the reputation of being one of the most innovative organizations in the Canadian floor covering industry. The group was honored by Armstrong Flooring at a special awards event at the International Surfaces Show last month in Las Vegas, Nevada.
