With 13 locations across California and Nevada, Duracite has over 37 years experience serving these areas with solid surface products as well as natural stone. Owner and CEO, Fadi Halabi, has been with the company since 1988, and officially bought the company in 1993.
Originally from Jordan, Halabi grew up in Saudi Arabia, and then came to the U.S. in 1984 to attend college. After graduating from the University of California, Berkeley in 1988 with a degree in Civil Engineering, he had a plan to return to Saudi Arabia and help his father with his construction business. “While I was working on my Master’s Degree in business, I met a business consultant that was working with Duracite on developing a production software system for the company,” he said. “He asked me to help him with the project a few hours per week, and that was the first interaction I had ever had with the countertop business.”
