Stephen Kleinhans, CEO and co-owner of Big 'D' Floor Covering Supplies, a new member of FCNews' Top 20 Flooring Distributors list, has a simple business goal: leverage your strengths. "Big 'D' success is about recognizing and focusing on what we're good at," Kleinhans told FCNews. If you look at the top distributors, they all focus on their strengths and don't try to be what they are not.
Big 'D' project sales for 2018 will be in the range of $110 million, compared to $98 million in 2017. Big 'D' has a strong focus on installation-related products (including tools, powders and adhesives), although LVT/WPC is its fastest growing category, followed by ceramics. Some of its main suppliers include: Johnsonite (and its family of commercial products), Tarkett, Mapei, Schluter, Uzin and RB Rubber Floors. In fact, Big 'D' has been Mapei's largest distributor for three of the past five years. Kleinhans, who first joined the company in 1983 to oversee operations, said more than 85% of his sales came from actual installation products.

Smokin’ G’S And Big D’S Bbq
Smokin G's and Big D's BBQ first pulled their food truck trailer into the Napa Auto Parts parking lot in Willits about three months ago and have since become a culinary destination for locals. The stand is owned by father and son, Danny and Garrett Lewis, who serve barbecue staples, as well as innovative twists. Menu includes Tri-Tip Sandwich, Pulled Pork Sandwich, Spicy Pulled Pork Sandwich, Pulled Chicken Sandwich, BBQ Nachos, Regular or BBQ Tacos, Mac & Cheese, Coleslaw and potato salad. And a lot of the recipes come from one side or the other of the family, a lot from either my father's side or my mother's side. In addition to family recipes, they serve new ones that they've come up with on their own, Garrett said, "Everything is good in every way."Garrett explained that customers can pre-order ribs or tri-tip, a handy option for nights when what to cook for dinner remains a mystery. In fact, Danny builds barrel smokers himself and has created a variety of themed smokers over the years, such as the one he made for the Loose Caboose Cafe which incorporated railroad ties, staying true to to the train theme of the restaurant. Smokin' G's and Big D's BBQ's are open in the Napa parking lot at 1571 South Main Street in Willits on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 11 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., or while supplies last.
