If you’re a tile industry professional and have been at it for a while, you probably know the name Louisville Tile. As a fourth-generation, family-owned, 67-year-old tile distributor with 13 locations in five states (Kentucky, Ohio, Indiana, Michigan, and Tennessee), it offers employees long-term careers, establishing a family-like environment strengthened via its caring culture. The firm has quietly and successfully grown to having sales approaching $100 million. Ostensibly, one would think with accomplishments like that, it would be time to chill out and have a mint julep (or two).
“Not today!” declared Matthew Saltzman, CEO of Louisville Tile, who joined the firm last year, bringing with him a seasoned Wall Street background. “The world has changed and continues to evolve rapidly. Rather than rest on our laurels, it was time to proactively re-think, re-invest and revitalize. Standing still only makes you a target to be run over.”
