Cosentino is launching its first Cosentino
Center in North America in Anaheim, CA. Opening with a reception on Wednesday, September 15, 2010, the new center hopes to enhance both the trade and consumer experience.
The Cosentino Center concept already exists in Europe, where the company has its global headquarters. Designed to be more than a showroom, the centers integrate distribution facilities, exhibition areas, workspaces for designers to bring clients, classrooms for continuing education, and kitchens and event space for demonstrations.
“We are thrilled to be introducing the Cosentino Center to the U.S. market by unveiling the first in Anaheim, CA,” said Lorenzo Marquez, VP of marketing for Cosentino. “This is the next evolution of the Cosentino brand, offering a new take on the showroom experience, design innovation and demonstration.”
Occupying more 50,000 sq. ft. Anaheim facility incorporates warehouse space and distribution center, as well as a showroom, where visitors can view the full portfolio of Cosentino brands, including Silestone natural quartz, ECO by Cosentino recycled surfaces, SenSa granite, Scalea natural stone, Marlique marble, MURO mosaics, and the Prexury collection, a semi-precious stone line.
The Cosentino Group also has larger plans to increase its presence in the U.S. in the next 12 months by opening centers in Dallas, Phoenix and Atlanta before the end of 2010, with further plans to expand distribution in Florida, California, Ohio, and New York in 2011.
“As Cosentino’s presence continues to grow in North America, it’s imperative to provide the resources and support that architects and designers need to grow their businesses and be successful,” said Marquez. “That goal is the guiding vision behind the Cosentino Center concept. This first opening demonstrates Cosentino’s commitment to the industry professionals who use our materials and to the craft and industry as a whole.”
The Anaheim Cosentino Center is located at 611 East Cerritos Avenue, Anaheim, CA, 92805. It is open to trade professionals and consumers from Monday to Friday, 8 am–5 pm or by appointment.
