Mohawk Industries
Mohawk Industries stands as the world’s largest flooring manufacturer, a title the Calhoun, Georgia-based company has earned through more than a century of relentless innovation, strategic growth, and a commitment to delivering superior floor covering solutions across the globe. With roots tracing back to 1878 when William Shuttleworth and his sons established a carpet mill in New York’s Hudson Valley, the company formally emerged in its current form in 1988 when Mohawk Industries was spun off from Mohasco Corporation following a leveraged buyout.
Listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol MHK, Mohawk Industries is a Fortune 500 company serving residential and commercial customers across approximately 180 countries. The company operates through three core segments: Global Ceramic, Flooring North America, and Flooring Rest of the World. Its product portfolio spans carpet, carpet tile, rugs, laminate, luxury vinyl tile, hardwood flooring, sheet vinyl, ceramic and porcelain tile, natural stone, and quartz countertops, offering one of the most comprehensive selections of floor covering products available from a single manufacturer.
Mohawk’s portfolio of recognized brands includes Mohawk, Karastan, Pergo, Quick-Step, Daltile, American Olean, Marazzi, Unilin, Godfrey Hirst, and many others, allowing the company to serve virtually every market segment from entry-level residential to premium commercial applications. The company manufactures in 19 countries and employs approximately 40,500 people worldwide, generating annual revenues approaching $11 billion.
Headquartered at 160 South Industrial Boulevard, Calhoun, Georgia, Mohawk Industries has expanded aggressively through acquisitions since its public listing in 1992, completing more than 33 acquisitions to build out its global footprint. Jeffrey Lorberbaum serves as the company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, guiding a business that has consistently held top-three market positions in North America, Europe, South America, and the Asia-Pacific region.
For architects, contractors, interior designers, homebuilders, and procurement professionals seeking a trusted flooring partner with proven scale and product diversity, Mohawk Industries represents an industry benchmark for quality, sustainability, and innovation in textile-based floor covering solutions.
