WJ Grosvenor, a subsidiary of Fishman Flooring Solutions and a leading distributor of flooring and flooring installation supplies, opened a new branch in Warwick, R.I., on Feb. 2. Located at 101 Hallene Rd., the branch is managed by Heder Gavira, a bilingual industry expert with 14 years of warehouse and branch management experience at Grosvenor. With the new addition, Fishman now operates in 18 states.
“Opening the Warwick branch is a natural extension of our purchase of Grosvenor in December 2024,” said Shane Richmond, president of Fishman. “That acquisition gave us a strong foothold in the Massachusetts and New Hampshire flooring markets. It also presented an opportunity to build on Grosvenor’s outstanding reputation, earned over decades, to establish the company in Rhode Island, which we have now accomplished with the Warwick location.”
The new branch is designed to give the Rhode Island flooring installation community fast, convenient access to both Grosvenor’s broad product line and the company’s extensive experience addressing even the most difficult flooring installation issues, according to Richmond. The branch includes a showroom and a warehouse stocked with Grosvenor flooring and flooring installation products. Products featured include engineered hardwood, luxury vinyl tile and plank, and sports and multi-functional flooring, as well as the wide array of products necessary to install them.
