Fante Flooring
Eric Fante, owner of Fante Flooring in Newtown Square, spent a lot of his childhood helping his dad and grandfather in the family business. Eric remembers being a young boy and learning the many aspects of running a flooring business. Fante Flooring opened in 1946, and the business continued to grow. By the 1970s they turned the store into a beautiful showroom, featuring a 4000 square foot showroom with a large selection of designer floors that aren’t always found in large retail stores. Eric took over running the business in 2001, and for customers who can’t come into the showroom, Fante offers a showroom on wheels, bringing floor samples directly to customers’ homes so they’re able to have a look at flooring under their own lighting to decide what works.
