Floor & Decor Holdings, Inc. has opened a new warehouse‑style store and design center at 1300 Shehadi Court in Dearborn, Michigan. The location will employ 35 full‑time and 15 part‑time associates and is led on the ground by Chief Executive Merchant Wesley Walker.
The Dearborn store brings the company’s nationwide warehouse footprint to 262 locations and is a key step in its aggressive expansion plan to reach 500 stores as housing demand recovers. The move underscores Floor & Decor’s strategy of delivering immediate, in‑stock inventory and everyday low prices to professional installers and serious DIY customers, even as the broader flooring market faces soft demand and macro‑economic pressures.
The opening is accompanied by a series of community‑focused events: a ribbon‑cutting ceremony on January 5, a family‑friendly Super Saturday on January 17, and a PRO Industry Networking Event on March 26. The store will also run a $5,000 Floor Makeover Sweepstakes from December 26 through February 25, creating local excitement and driving foot traffic. The new store is expected to create 35 full‑time and 15 part‑time jobs and will work with local suppliers to support the Dearborn economy.
In addition to the store launch, Floor & Decor’s leadership transition is underway. Bradley Paulsen has been appointed CEO effective December 26, 2025, with Thomas Taylor moving to Executive Chair. The transition signals continuity in strategy while positioning the company for continued growth.
The warehouse model, combined with a focus on professional installers and DIY customers, gives Floor & Decor a competitive edge in the Midwest. By offering a wide selection of in‑stock products at low prices, the company can meet the needs of both large‑scale contractors and individual homeowners, reinforcing its market position and supporting its long‑term expansion goals.
Overall, the Dearborn opening demonstrates Floor & Decor’s resilience and commitment to growth, even amid industry headwinds. The company’s continued investment in new stores, coupled with a clear focus on customer value and community engagement, positions it well for the next phase of its expansion strategy.
