The Tile Store Inc

Manuel Colchete founded The Tile Store Inc. in Metuchen, New Jersey.1990. After 2 years, Manuel realized that retail was too limiting for his adventurous nature. He desired to reach a more diverse market than his local area, so he began transitioning Tile Store Inc. into a wholesale business. As the wholesale market grew, The Tile Store Inc. branched out and bought from many companies in Italy and Spain, and simultaneously built a better credit history. In 1997, the Tile Store Inc. bought a small warehouse in Belleville, NJ and ran the wholesale business from there until 2010. Manuel currently works in Fairfield, NJ, with a 30,000 square foot warehouse, where he and his team are running their business (and out of warehouse space!).
