Meet Carlos Lara of Craftex Wholesale Distributors in Southwest Houston

Today we’d like to introduce you to Carlos Lara.

Thanks for sharing your story with us Carlos. So, let’s start at the beginning and we can move on from there.
Craftex was founded in 1977 in an industrial warehouse district. We started by supplying a thriving macrame hobby for the home and garden enthusiasts. Progress was made during the arts and crafts years that provided growth and diversification in the lines of products offered and in 1992 we expanded our service to the Decorator, Designer, and Floral Trades. Since then, we have traveled the world markets and became a direct importer of quality decorative items for the home and business.

So let’s switch gears a bit and go into the Craftex Wholesale Distributors story. Tell us more about the business.
