PTK Oriental Rug Center was first opened in 1974 by two brothers when
oriental rugs were not as popular. We opened a small store in Milburn,
New Jersey. Soon after, two more relatives joined, and we created a business
name by combining the initials of our last names. After years of hard
work and loyalty in the business, we changed the name to PTK to stand
for “Promises to Keep,” inspired by a Robert Frost poem.
The poem is reminiscent of how we started with a goal and kept our business
strong through loyalty and honesty. So much so, that even in growth, our
promise to offer the best selection at the lowest price remains our number
one priority.
