Kandy Outdoor Flooring

Co-founders Doug & Kelly bought a typical condo with typical floor-to-ceiling windows off the typical living room. The balcony was visible from the entire living/dining room and the kitchen. The balcony surface was wet, stained, dirty, barren and inhospitable. As they renovated the inside of their condo, they wanted to take their personal taste and style to the outside. They love the outdoors and spending time outside in a space they love is very important to them. They expected it to be as easy as getting help with closets or blinds, but, to their surprise, it wasn't. After months of research, they found that there were no options that met their standards for quality and taste and also met the condo building rules and by-laws. They realized right then that there was a major market gap. They did some research and discovered that the urbanization trend in Canada had resulted in almost 20 per cent of Canadian households being represented by owner occupied condos. They founded KANDY Outdoor Flooring in 2011 to serve this unaddressed market gap
