Award winners were selected based on voting during the annual Internatio­nal Surfaces Event in Las Vegas. More than 1,000 individual retailers cast their ballots in person and online to honor their favorite products and brand- related tools. The Dealers’ Choice Awards program is sponsored by Floor Covering Weekly, a leading industry publicatio­n.

Mohawk Industries won a record seven Dealers’ Choice Awards and was the only flooring manufactur­er to receive multiple honors. The company received awards for five products as well as its merchandis­ing for RevWood Plus and the groundbrea­king Omnify technology platform.

“We are extremely proud of this accomplish­ment and appreciate each of the retailers who cast their votes for Mohawk,” said Karen Mendelsohn, Mohawk’s senior VP of marketing. “We view these wins as a tangible validation of our commitment to retailers, especially since winners are selected solely by qualified flooring retailers and ballots are tallied by a third party, making Dealers’ Choice a coveted awards program across the flooring industry.”

Mohawk also won Dealer’s Choice Awards for RevWood Plus merchandis­ing and Omnify, an integrated technology solution that links retailer’s online and physical stores, giving consumers decision simplicity and increasing the likelihood of purchasing from Mohawk Aligned Retailers.
