About Us
 We’re celebrating our 83rd business year and thank you for your support and trust. Our company was founded in 1924 by Mr. K.A. Pridjian, soon after his arrival in Chicago. Times have changed since he first came to the city of broad shoulders, but our dedication to being worthy of your confidence remains the same. K.A. Pridjian & Company has built its reputation on the highest standards of integrity in business, knowledge, selection, value, and reliability in the products and services we provide. From very simple beginnings, K.A. Pridjian built his company into a highly respected source for Oriental Rugs and Broadloom carpeting, and carpet cleaning service. In 1960 he built the largest and best equipped rug sales and service facility in the Midwest. Soon after he acquired the Karastan line and today the company is one the nation’s oldest independent Karastan dealers. He was among the first in the nation to add the newest cleaning machines, techniques and materials to make cleaning more modern, efficient, affordable, and complete. Rugs were thoroughly dusted to remove embedded sand and grit, meticulously washed and rinsed, then extracted and dried. It’s time consuming and labor intensive, but it yields the best results and it’s the same process we employ today with up-to-date refinements. In our repair and restoration department we’re able to maintain, repair and restore carpets and rugs of all types. All of our departments are staffed by highly skilled people who still take pride in their work. Together, this allows us to offer a service that is far and away the best and that now serves the entire nation. Our customers tell us that this is the basis of the loyalty and friendship we have been blessed with over the years. Our list of clients and their finely carpeted interiors is long and varied; from homes and offices to churches, hospitals, schools, libraries, boats, and even trains. At K.A. Pridjian & Co. you'll find a selection of carefully chosen hand knotted rugs from around the world in a stunning array of colors, textures, designs and sizes, as well as the finest offerings in broadloom and machine made Orientals from Karastan, Couristan, Fabrica and others. We also offer custom installation on broadloom wall-to-wall carpeting, and for the finishing touch in any room, we can assist with the design and installation of custom draperies. As a family owned business now in its third generation we welcome your inquiries regarding our products and services, all at no obligation. If you’re nearby and would like to tour our plant, we’d be happy to show you around. Our toll free number is listed below and you’re invited to call – we still answer our phones! And like our founder always liked to say, our goal is to “make your carpet smile again."
