HomeNewsFCNews launches Chris Davis Memorial Facebook page

As the floor covering industry mourns the loss of Chris Davis, so many people have fond memories of a man who not only made such an impact, but also touched so many lives. As such, Floor Covering News is providing a forum on Facebook, the Chris Davis Memorial Page, where friends and colleagues can offer their thoughts, recollections, photos, condolences, etc. We encourage everyone to remember Chris in their own personal way on this page by visiting facebook.com/ChrisDavisMemorial.


Davis was an integral part of the floor covering industry for 18 years as the president and CEO of the World Covering Association. He was the biggest advocate for the advancement of floor covering retailers through education and their protection through legislative efforts. He also took Surfaces to the next level, eventually selling the show for $40 million and endowing the WFCA’s future.

A memorial service will be scheduled in the coming weeks. See FCNews.net for details.
