Mohawk
Industries, Inc. has expanded its international presence through an investment
of a minority interest in Sanfi Ceramics. Ceramic tile is estimated to make up
70% or more of all flooring sold in China
and is 25 times larger in units than the U.S. ceramic tile market, with
anticipated growth of 10% or more per year. The top 10 manufacturers in China
currently comprise about 10% of the market, creating significant opportunity
for expansion. This year, Sanfi has increased sales revenues about 50% from the
prior year by continuing its focus on the local market.
”This new business venture clearly reinforces our continued commitment to being a global manufacturer in the flooring industry. We are excited to partner with a world-class company such as Sanfi,” said Jeffrey Lorberbaum, Mohawk Industries’ chairman and CEO. ”Our joining forces with Mohawk gives us access to the latest technology and a partner with a history of excellence in selling and distribution. We are eager to leverage our combined strength and expand our market presence,” said Chen Xiongzai, chairman and CEO of Sanfi.
