cosentino_city_montreal-495x400Cosentino Group recently announced that the North American headquarters for the company will be moving from the Houston area to Miami this summer. Cosentino currently operates 36 centers in the U.S. and four in Canada. Plans for further expansion in the coming months prompted the move to Miami. Cosentino states that the move will facilitate coordination with the company’s headquarters in Almeria, Spain and make the management of the North American market more efficient.

Cosentino recently opened six new “Centers” in the United States. According to the company, these facilities combine the functions of warehouse, training center, offices and showroom. With these launches, Cosentino now has its own facilities in half of the 50 American States.

Cosentino also currently operates three “City” concept showrooms in Montreal, Toronto and New York, with plans to open two more in the near future. The first of which is scheduled to open in San Francisco at the end of April and the second in Miami’s Design District in July. This presence with its own assets is completed with two distribution hubs and 12 surface elaboration and transformation plants.

In addition, the company anticipates to grow the number of employees to more than 1,200 in the U.S. and Canada by the end of this year.

Eduardo Cosentino, EVP Global Sales for Cosentino Group and CEO of Cosentino North America, stated, “Since we opened the subsidiary in 1997, Houston has been an incredible place for our operations in the USA, and our business in the city as well as in Texas will continue to grow strongly in the coming years. However, it is clear that in order to sustain our growth and achieve greater efficiency we need our corporate headquarters to be located in a global city, from where we can centralize management for the American continent. Without a doubt this move will help us in our objective of expanding even more in the USA over the coming years, consolidating our leadership and being able to meet the demands of this competitive market.”
