Thomas Baert is the president of CFL Flooring, and he is also a founder and an owner of Domotex Asia China Floor. We had an opportunity to sit down with Thomas recently to discuss the company’s growth and its plans for the future. The following are some excerpts of that conversation, which you can listen to in its entirety here.
Baert: We started the company in 2004. It was founded by Woody Zeng and myself. Later, our CEO, Tom Van Poyer, joined the company. Originally, we were a wood and laminate company, but we gradually evolved into LVT. I think we were the first to make SPC in China and export it to the United States. We have grown from an Asian company into a global company and now have operations not only in China, but also have factories in Taiwan, Vietnam, and recently in Calhoun, Georgia. We aim to become a $1 billion company very soon.
