CFI heads to Chile

The International Certified Flooring Installers Association, CFI is in Santiago, Chile this week.  SODIMAC HOMECENTERS, with over 124 stores throughout South America invited the CFI Team for a week of installation training.  During this trip, the latest techniques and current information training will cover the topics of ceramic – porcelain flooring and laminate – wood flooring.  Over 60 installers and numerous SODIMAC HOMECENTER sales associates will participate during the week. 

Bill Haas, CEO of Global Business Insights LLC, was instrumental in arranging for CFI to implement their installation training programs for SODIMAC in Santiago, Chile.  In 2001, SODIMAC purchased four stores in Argentina and five in Chile from the Home Depot.  Bill who has been working as a consultant to Sodimac for several years, promoted the programs. “Based on my past experience with CFI and the difference they made for a company for which Jim and I also worked as consultants, I know this is a perfect match for SODIMAC in their goal to provide the finest customer service in South America,” said Haas.
