NEWS RELEASE/BULLETIN: Small space living is leading urban Canadians to look for ways to expand home experiences and make use of every inch in their often-tiny condos. In Vancouver, for example, there are condos as small as 226 square feet, and Toronto’s growth includes smaller condos.
“There are companies that specialize in closets, bathrooms, condo-sized furniture and décor,” says KANDY Outdoor Flooring Co-Founder Kelly Niessen. “People don’t know they have options for a very important space in condos - - balconies. Canadians have enjoyed backyard barbeques for decades. That doesn’t have to stop just because we are in smaller urban spaces.”
KANDY Outdoor FlooringTM expands home experiencesTM by providing new outdoor flooring for condo balconies in a way never before offered
in North America. KANDY is the market leader providing service, selection, and installation of the highest quality and best available floating outdoor flooring systems for condo balconies.
“We’re expanding ourselves,” says Niessen. “We have an exciting and unique business opportunity for the right candidates to participate in our brand growth as Franchise Partners in major centres across Canada.”Sales quadrupled in year two over year one and Niessen believes there
is tremendous opportunity with what KANDY is doing, and how they’re doing it.

A TRIBUTE LETTER TO DOUG WEBSTER (February 1944 – December 1, 2013)
| Dear Doug:We didn’t get a chance to tell you in person, but it is very important to us that you know. You blew into our world here at KANDY Outdoor Flooring, brought your wisdom and experience, and then you left us again, way too soon. We are sad about that.But we are thankful, too. Thankful that you shared your time with us. Thankful that you shared your expertise with us.Thankful that you helped coordinate our recent product development trip to Shanghai, lending your knowledge of the region, the language and culture, and the manufacturing industry there, to us.
We’re very thankful you and your lovely wife Rose helped set up meetings with the right people in China, and that you accompanied us to those meetings and interpreted for us. You know that we simply couldn’t have done it without you. Your generousity was amazing. You have made such a positive impact on us, and on our business. You saved us time and trouble, and you helped us successfully navigate a significant importing process. The Rotarian in you was evident, always, as you exemplified Rotary’s “Four-Way Test”. Because you lived this Rotarian code, your alignment with KANDY’s core values was seamless. We knew you were special, with a unique set of skills and experience that were just what we needed. We feel blessed to have had this time with you. And we want you to know you will remain a very important person in the growth of our brand and our culture. Farewell, Doug. |
‘Twas the night before Christmas when all were at rest
Santa was checking for the place that seemed best
Indeed he was scouting for new places to land
When he saw patios and decks that had seen KANDY’s sweet hand!
He saw granite, and Ipe, and composite too
It made him wonder what he’d have to do
To get KANDY to make his North Pole deck divine
Whether in parallel, diamond, or parquet design
He didn’t find evidence of glue, grout or nails
And the lovely tiling came right out to the rails
Durable, attractive, environmentally friendly
He saw how KANDY transformed the decks so ably
How’d you do it? Asked Santa, hoisting his red pack
It was easy, we said, it was simple as heck
KANDY Outdoor Flooring gives you a whole new room
A wonderful clean space that’s suddenly abloom
Then Santa heard about KANDY’s franchising plans
...to attract partners in cities across this great land...
He knew he’d want Rudolph to park his old sleigh
On those clean and dry surfaces each stop on their way!
Santa marveled at the difference that KANDY had made
To spaces that last year were dumpy and gray
KANDY went above and beyond with these balconies and decks
They designed, delivered, installed and cleaned up the mess!
It was clear these ‘outdoor floor’ folks all had great vision
His gifts couldn’t be candy – that was his decision
He vowed to reward them but to be very discreet
Because they already had The Sweet Treat for Your Feet!
So we hope you all settle ‘round the patio window with care
Knowing expanded home experiences soon will be there
You just have to weather a few dark stormy nights
Watching the reflection on your deck from the bright christmas lights!
Season’s Greetings... from all of us at KANDY!
Not one, but two. Two wonderful clients in the past month have talked to us here at KANDY Outdoor Flooring about Kandy, Sri Lanka.
The first was a Vancouver client who emailed us while he was on a trip. “Hey, are you guys connected to Kandy Sri Lanka?”
It was the first we’d heard of a city named after our outdoor flooring company, and we’re thrilled .
Next it was a Toronto client. A wonderful, petite, South Asian woman who – about an hour into our meeting – mentioned the city, its cultural and religious significance, and its beauty. She told us Kandy rests in the mountainous and thickly forested interior of the island of Sri Lanka. And of course, she told us about the Temple of the Tooth.
Turns out Kandy, Sri Lanka is a pretty important place in the Buddhist religion. Did you know that Buddha – the Buddha – is at rest in a temple in Kandy? At least part of him is. You see, we’ve now learned that when Buddha died more than two millennia ago, in BC 534, his body was burnt on a sandalwood pyre in India. Once the fire died down, a tooth was discovered in the ashes. A left upper canine. This tooth became a very important symbol, conferring all kinds of power and influence on the holder of the tooth. In fact the belief was that the holder of the tooth had a divine right to rule.
(You can imagine there was fighting, lots of it, but we don’t like fighting so we are just gonna gloss right over that part of the story.)
For centuries – really, more than two millennia – this tooth has been enshrined in special temples built specifically to protect the religious icon. And so it is that The Temple of the Tooth is currently in Kandy.
There are all kinds of other interesting things we discovered about Kandy. The Kingdom of Kandy was an independent monarchy between the late 15th and early 19th centuries. It is a Unesco World Heritage Site. About 110,000 people live there now amid tea plantations, tea factories – oh and it is where the world famous Ceylon tea was developed!
But it’s this Temple of the Tooth we’re most enamoured with. It’s built of sculpted wood, ivory, limestone and marble… and, well, we think all it needs now is some KANDY Outdoor Flooring around those outdoor terraces (if it doesn’t have outdoor terraces, perhaps it should J). We know the tooth remnant and the spirit of Buddha would be oh-so-very-happy to be surrounded by The Sweet Treat For Your FeetTM, don’t you?
It happened so quickly. We were making a quick stop to grab some lunch before hitting the road to drive back to Toronto from Ottawa, where we had been on some personal business.
Just as we were getting out of our van a woman walked right up to us.
“Do you only work in Toronto?” she says. “I see a 416 number….”
Having KANDY Outdoor Flooring decals on our KANDY vehicles is for exactly this purpose. To let people know we are out there, and we can help expand home experiences with new outdoor flooring for condo balconies!
We explained that we were located in Toronto but are expanding home experiences for people right across the country as we roll out our franchise program. But right at that moment, this woman, “Susan”, was concerned only about her balcony.
“I have this awful carpet on my balcony…and wondered if you might be able to help.”
Yes! We went back to “Susan’s” condo in Nepean, measured her beautiful space and showed her the options. She chose our beautiful Bolivian IPE.
Turns out “Susan’s” condo board is interested in presenting our amazing solutions to all their residents.
Guess what that means?? The clients are ready in Ottawa (and elsewhere in this fine country of ours). Now we just need the franchisees!
Call us to talk about franchise opportunities in your area, or visit the franchise page on our site to find out if a KANDY franchise might be for you!
