Cosentino, the Spanish producer and distributor of innovative and sustainable surfaces for the world of architecture and design, has been recognized as a preferred partner for 2022 by David Weekley Homes, one of the nation’s largest privately held home builders. The honor comes as a result of David Weekley Homes’ 18th annual National Preferred Partner Survey, which recognizes partners who have consistently gone above and beyond, operating at world-class levels as determined by the home builder’s supplier evaluation platform.

“We’re honored to be recognized by such a notable builder and important partner,” said Alex Rioja, vice president of builder sales at Cosentino North America. “Cosentino is dedicated to creating innovative products that empower design professionals to achieve their visions — with a wide range of applications and solutions to support easy installation. The team has been working extremely hard — especially over the past two years – to provide support to partners like David Weekley Homes despite unprecedented supply chain and logistics challenges. I’m so proud of all we’ve accomplished, and recognitions like this keep us motivated to maintain investments in inventory and innovations, while providing the best support to our partners.”

The National Preferred Partner Survey is completed by David Weekley Homes team members who work directly with preferred partners and consists of two questions with a 1-to-5 rating system. The evaluation process involves a comprehensive system of feedback and discussion that enables David Weekley Homes to measure excellence among all established trade partners and their channel partners. Providers that receive the highest scores throughout the year are presented with the prestigious National Preferred Partners Award.

“Cosentino has demonstrated world-class quality and service this year,” said John Schiegg, vice president of supply chain services at David Weekley Homes. “They have gone above and beyond to provide us with the solutions needed to surpass the expectations of our homebuyers. It is our honor to name Cosentino as a National Preferred Partner.”

Cosentino has been working with David Weekley Homes for more than 10 years, with the company’s surfaces Silestone and Dekton used in more than 1,500 homes last year alone.
