The National Wood Flooring Association
Since 1985 the National Wood Flooring Association has addressed the need for an industry-wide national association to help keep pace with competitive markets and changing consumer tastes. Today the NWFA has international status with members in every state in the US and 37 countries around the globe.
The state-of-the-art technology and almost limitless choices of today's stains, finishes, styles and designs make wood flooring one of the most practical, easy-care and versatile floor coverings today. The NWFA is a resource for the industry – they answer questions and keep members up to date with trends and information.
Women-Owned Business Enterprise (WBE)
A WBE is a business that is at least 51% owned by a woman or women, who control and operate it. “Control” in this context means exercising the power to make policy decisions. “Operate” in this context means being actively involved in the day-to-day management.
The Woman-Owned Business Enterprise (WBE) Certification Program qualifies a certified business to be considered by organizations that seek vendor relationships with organizations owned and operated by women or minorities.
