A decade ago, Matt Jorgensen finished college and moved down to Pompano Beach, Fla., from the Washington, D.C., area with his dog and $500 in his pocket. An uncle with a couple of Carpet One stores in New England connected him with a local ProSource dealer and helped Jorgensen land his first real job. It also turned out to be a valuable lesson on the value of networking.
By 2009, Jorgensen had discovered how the industry can grip your soul. After having developed some of his own contacts, he embraced his passion and opened Foundation Flooring in Pompano Beach with a core objective: become Florida’s most reliable company for floor covering needs.
