Since 1943

Our History


Erickson's Flooring and Supply was established by Mr. Art Erickson in 1943. Being of Norweigian decent, Art and his family had a strong heritage in the wood boat building industry. Working from his side porch office in Detroit, Art began laying, sanding, and finishing solid wood floors.

The end of World War II brought a group of northern Michigan veterans to Detroit in search of work. Primarily of Scottish and Finish woodworking backgrounds, these veterans were accustomed to honest, hard work and quality craftsmanship. Erickson's became their home. By the 1960's, Erickson's was running forty crews under Leonard Howay's direction. When Art retired in 1971, he turned the business over to Leonard. Four years later, Erickson's began to devote itself strictly to wood flooring distribution.

In the late 70's, Dick Walters began as a salesman at Erickson's, after a 15-year sales career with Hartco. In 1983 Dick and Diane Walters took a deep breath, and with all their savings, purchased Erickson's. As their children, Tony, Joan, Pat, and Rick grew up, they began pitching in at the family business. A lot of hard work and sacrifice later, Erickson's has grown from a local family business into one of the top Midwest wholesale flooring distributors.

Gradually, Erickson's expanded into distributing more than just wood flooring. In the mid 90's, Erickson's opened branch locations in Grand Rapids, Chicago, Indianapolis and the newest central warehousing facility in Kalamazoo. Today, Erickson's has a team of over 50 employees servicing retailers and flooring contractors in five states.

In 2022 Erickson's sold 100% of its stock to the Erickson's Employee Stock Ownership Plan and is now an employee-owned company. For the Walters family, and for all the Erickson's families, we wanted to find a way to build on the last 78 years serving the Great Lakes area flooring trade. This will provide continuity and build greater value for our customers, employees, and suppliers. Our customers should know that they are buying from local owners like themselves. Now we can proudly say, "We care more because we own the place!"
