History
CCA Global Partners is a privately held company established in 1984 as Carpet Co-op of America. This cooperative was created to help independently owned carpet retailers achieve better buying power. Over the years, CCA Global has capitalized on its management and marketing expertise to expand successfully into other diverse industries, including mortgage banking, lighting products, and biking.
In 2001, CCA Global acquired the Ilucio buying group and brands and formed Lighting One, whose members provide products and services to lighting retailers. Lighting One builds on the strength of CCA Global in the home furnishings industry, and introduces CCA’s winning strategies to independent lighting retailers.
