Metropolitan Hardwood Floors Relocates To New Kent Distribution Facility
Metropolitan Hardwood Floors (US) will soon be relocating to
Cabot Properties’ Cabot @ 216 building in Kent, Washington,
consolidating two existing Kent locations into one centralized
distribution facility totaling 62,150 square feet. Brian Bruininks,
CCIM of The Andover Company, Inc./Corfac International
represented Metropolitan Hardwood Floors. Bruininks has
worked on Metropolitan’s behalf for the past 8+ years, including
multiple facility expansions, lease extensions and the
procurement of new facilities in the Denver, CO and Omaha, NB
markets. “Operational efficiencies and the reduction of facility
costs were the two main drivers in our decision to relocate,”
Bruininks said. “A softer leasing environment provided us with
the opportunity to negotiate favorable lease terms. In addition, a
more efficient layout at Cabot’s property allows Metropolitan to
shed about 12,000 square feet of warehouse space, further
reducing their operating expenses.”
Originally founded in 1992 in Vancouver, Canada, Metropolitan
Hardwood Floors distributes an exclusive selection of premium
quality prefinished hardwood floors to markets throughout
Canada and the western USA. In 1996, Metropolitan Hardwood
Floors (US), Inc. was formed to better serve customers in the US
markets. Metropolitan’s Kent, Washington facility serves as the
company’s US headquarters and comprises a sales and
distribution center, technical training center and product
showroom. Metropolitan distributes its products to hardwood
flooring dealers across the western US, including Alaska and
Hawaii. Two additional distribution centers are located in
Denver, Colorado and Omaha, Nebraska. Metropolitan’s
commercial design division specializes in providing hardwood
flooring solutions for the architecture and interior design
community.

Washington State Features High on Rankings
In calculating its 2010 State Business Tax Climate Index, the non-profit non-partisan research
organization Tax Foundation finds Washington State to be one of the top 10 best states when it
comes to business taxes.
The foundation scores each state on a combination of indexes based on corporate, individual
income, sales, unemployment and property taxes. The result is a score of zero (worst) to 10 (best).
On this basis, Washington scores 5.81 for 2010, compared with 5.94 for 2009. Other states' scores
range from 7.42 to 3.6. Not unexpectedly, Washington receives the highest rating in the nation for
income tax but the lowest for sales tax. Good scores on the other taxes boost it to ninth position
overall.
Washington state weighs in at number 2 on Forbes magazine's latest ranking on the best states for
business, which measures six vital business categories - costs, labor supply, regulatory
environment, economic climate, growth prospects and quality of life. Our state is rated best in the
nation on growth prospects and features in the top five on labor supply, regulatory environment, and
