A Little About Us
Hi! Glad you're here and hope you are having a nice day 🙂 Welcome to jorathim.com! It is our goal to be the easiest place to buy a faucet. We carry a large selection of top quality brand name faucets and fixtures at reasonable prices. We are not a big giant corporation with a faceless board of directors and private jets. Nope. We are just normal real people! jorathim.com was launched in 2011 by Jimy , a father team from the Los Angeles area.
We have over 40 years' experience working with faucets. In the 80's Jimy (the Dad!) began his career in the wholesale plumbing industry. In the early 90's he started his own wholesale company to supply plumbing and electrical products used in large scale commercial renovations of hotels and apartment complexes. He spent years learning just about everything there is to know about this stuff. Jim has personally worked with hundreds of different brands in the plumbing industry. From the cheapest import knock-off products to the super expensive high-end brands. He has seen it all. It's that knowledge you can take advantage of when you shop at jorathim.com today.
We enjoy working together and running a small family business. jorathim.com may not be the biggest or fanciest site, but we try to make up for that with knowledgeable and helpful customer service. Feel free to Contact Us at any time. We want to help you find exactly what you need and are not here to upsell.
The Colors of jorathim.com
Do you like the colors of our website? We hope so because we really love them. They were not chosen by some computer algorithm or even by a designer. Nope, the colors were 100% chosen by mother nature. During the time our co-founder Nick lived in Finland, he was inspired by the immense beauty he found in the Finnish forest or "metsä". Every single color on jorathim.com (other than white) can be found in the images of the Finnish forest floor below. The photos were taken in Nuuksio National Park in Southern Finland. We used photoshop to determine the digital hex codes for the natural colors found in the images. We then used this as inspiration for our site design.
We hope our site design gives a hint of the actual experience offered by a walk through the lush summer Scandinavian forestscape. Imagine the bright morning Nordic sun and the cool clean fresh air hitting your face. You hear the trickling water from a nearby creek and the knocking of a woodpecker somewhere off in the distance. Surrounding you are countless white birches, strong tall pines, and fragrant forest green spruce trees. All around are wild blueberry and brilliantly colored lingonberry bushes. You find yourself walking through springy shin-deep sea green moss still damp with morning dew (good thing you're wearing your rubber boots!). You're staring at the ground hunting for the elusive and delicious wild chanterelle mushroom. The images below are examples of what you might see. It's a relaxing and sensory experience that we hope one day you will get a chance to enjoy it for yourself. (click to enlarge)
