The 43 members of the National Floorcovering Alliance and their vendor partners met at the Grand Hyatt March 21-23 in Vail, Colorado. 

The NFA was formed in 1991 by eight of the largest and most reputable independent floor covering retailers in North America. In keeping with the original vision of the group, new members still are required to be a leader in their particular markets with sales of $10 million or more and must be recognized by both manufacturers and other dealers as a company with a track record of high integrity. Additionally, any new prospective NFA member must have 100% approval for inclusion in the group from every existing member. The non-competition structure between members allows all members to freely speak, share and develop new progressive ideas that ultimately benefit the group as a whole.
