Linoleum City INC

*Authorized Shaw Flooring Dealer* Family owned and operated business for over 66 years in the Los Angeles area. We sell floor covering for residential and commercial applications and to the entertainment industry. Linoleum City was established in 1948 on historic Route 66 at 5606 Santa Monica Boulevard in Hollywood, California by Bill Stifter who moved his small company here from Chicago, Illinois. Bill speculated that establishing a business near a Sears, Roebuck and Company would help his own business grow. In fact, the slogan on old yardsticks reads, “Sears is across from us.” Being near an identifiable store like Sears, Roebuck must have been a good thing. In 1968 the expanding business was moved across the street to a larger facility at 5657 Santa Monica Boulevard and the company’s new slogan became, “Sears is next to us." At the end of 2007, Linoleum City moved to its present location, at a much larger facility, a few blocks down from its previous location, at 4849 Santa Monica Boulevard, 2 blocks west of Vermont.
