Floor Covering News established the Al Wahnon Lifetime Achievement Award to recognize and

is of a scope and duration to be considered a lifetime achievement.

 

“This annual award honors an individual who has made significant contributions. We chose Pierre
Thabet this year because he exemplifies that person,” said Steven Feldman, Publisher and Editorial

“This award belongs to every employee from the Boa Franc team. They deserve all the credit
because they’re the ones who have made all the difference these past 35 years,” said Pierre
Thabet. .”Of course, nobody can be the best in everything they do, but you should strive to be the
best at what you’re really committed to. One of our common values at Boa-Franc is "GCS"—or
"Good Common Sense"—because it’s about taking pride in what we do.”
