 Atlanta Rug Retailer: RugSmart
RugSmart has quickly become a leader in online area rug retailing, but in the metro Atlanta area,
rug shoppers have known RugSmart as the source for affordable, quality rugs for years.RugSmart founders, Stephen Cumbest and Chris Saliga, started selling rugs on an Atlanta street corner. As their knowledge of the business grew, so did their inventory, which led to the opening of the store on "Furniture Row" in Norcross, Georgia. In 2000, the partners added strength to their management team when they brought on a third partner, Nathan Williams, who has more than two decades of business experience in furniture retailing.
