Established in South Florida Since 2001
Valencia Coverings was born from a passion for material beauty and the conviction that every space deserves surfaces of exceptional quality.
Since our founding, we have built long-standing relationships with the most prestigious manufacturers in Italy and Spain, ensuring our clients access the very best European craftsmanship. We are not simply a distributor — we are consultants who understand the vision behind every project, from private residences to large-scale real estate developments across South Florida.
Our Design Studio in North Miami and our warehouse in the Hialeah area are open to architects, designers, contractors, and property owners who seek an experience that goes far beyond browsing a catalog. Welcome to become part of our story.
What began as a localized clay tile importer has grown into Miami's most trusted partner for high-end European porcelain slabs, mosaics, and façades.
"We do not simply sell surfaces; we consult and build long-standing trust with architects and developers to make complex projects run seamlessly."
— Richard Sampedro, Founder
Founded by Richard Sampedro, specializing in importing traditional clay tiles and terracotta mosaics from Spain to feed a South Florida market hungry for rustic European styling.
Together, Richard and Alejandro establish close ties with leading manufacturing lines in Italy, Spain, and Japan, expanding the catalog into high-technology tiles.
As the portfolio grew to include large-format porcelain slabs and high-performance exterior wall facades, the company transitioned to its current title to represent the scope of their surface collections.
Operating from our design studio in North Miami and our logistics warehouse in Hialeah, we serve designers, trade professionals, and discerning homeowners across South Florida.
With over 25 years of industry experience, Richard drives the company's import logistics, sourcing pipelines, and commercial developer program partnerships.
