Solco Plumbing Supply opens downtown
Brooklyn showroom..

Barclays Center arena and entertainment complex.

Solco Plumbing Supply recently opened its 3,800-sq.-ft. Kitchen
and Bath Gallery of Brooklyn showroom in a prime retail area in
the borough’s flourishing downtown district.
“We chose the right time and the right place to move in there,”
Solco Director of Sales and Marketing Tom Acquavella told Supply
House Times. “It’s the hottest area in New York right now. It’s
the new Manhattan. A lot of people are choosing downtown
Brooklyn.”
Kitchen and Bath Gallery of Brooklyn is located near the new
Barclays Center arena and entertainment complex. “There are
thousands of building permits out in that downtown area right
now,” Acquavella said. “This area of Brooklyn is in the middle
of a major revitalization. We spent days going throughout the
neighborhood to see how the retailers were and the design and
looks of the shops. We were determined to design the showroom to
fit the neighborhood. The result was a relaxed industrial feel
that blends in perfectly. We have created a very comfortable
place for clients to shop and find products suitable for every
taste and budget.”

Acquavella noted that
Kitchen and Bath Gallery of Brooklyn is the only Kohler Premier
showroom in Brooklyn. This is Solco’s first foray into the showroom
side of the business (Solco has plumbing supply houses in Brooklyn,
the Bronx and Manhattan). Acquavella said the company has plans in
progress to open several more showrooms over the next few years.
He added the downtown Brooklyn showroom is a place where homeowners,
architects and designers can come and work with the showroom’s
selection center, while building owners and developers can work with
the Commercial Project Division team that also is located at the new
showroom. “You couldn’t put a finger on the map and pick a better
spot,” Acquavella said. “It’s not easy to find 4,000 sq. ft.
in Brooklyn. It worked out perfectly for us.”
An official grand opening celebration will take place in late
summer. Earlier in the month, the showroom partnered with the
neighboring carpet and sliding door businesses to offer a continued
education course and cocktail party for local design professionals.
Solco Plumbing Supply
has been the supplier of choice for plumbers, developers,
contractors and homeowners in the Metro-NY area, meeting their
plumbing, heating, decorative and commercial needs since 1960.
