Entrepreneur acts as architect of a multi-location retail giant
James Baloga has carved out more than simply a major entrepreneurial presence in the kitchen and bath industry’s retail sector. Along the way, he also established the very blueprint for the kind of high-volume, full-service, multi-location retail business model that has seen his company grow into perhaps the largest independent kitchen and bath dealership in the nation.
As owner and founder of the Holbrook, NY-based Consumers Kitchen & Bath Specialists, Baloga envisioned, and then ultimately spearheaded, the growth of a corporate entity whose success has been fueled both by traditional word-of-mouth referrals and an aggressive, savvy media advertising campaign.
Since its founding in 1977, Consumers Kitchens & Baths has served literally hundreds of thousands of Long Island homeowners through its highly systemized ordering/warehousing/service operation.
Operating from five “Specialty Supercenters,” the company boasts display facilities in excess of 100,000 sq. ft., and spotlights more than 650 full-size kitchen cabinet styles, along with an expansive selection of vanities, countertops, plumbing products, accessories and custom closet systems.
