Eugene T. "Gene" Barwick played a key role in promoting and developing new products and new processes for the tufted carpet industry. A native of Lake City, FL, Barwick worked as a floor covering buyer for Sears after military service during World War II. Barwick's travels brought him to the Dalton tufting district, where he purchased small rugs for his employers. Barwick quickly realized the growth potential of this budding industry as he observed the race to produce larger and larger rugs. Barwick went into manufacturing himself in 1949, investing all his savings. some $4,000, to buy out one of his suppliers.
