What Cumar does
Cumar Inc. (dba Cumar Marble & Granite) is a wholesale distributor and custom fabricator of natural and exotic stone, founded in 1992 by Angelo "Ivo" Cubi in Everett, Massachusetts. The company sources, stocks, and fabricates marble, granite, limestone, quartzite, onyx, and travertine from quarries in Italy, Brazil, Spain, France, Egypt, Turkey, Iran, Pakistan, Mexico, Ireland, and the United States. Its owned 125,000-square-foot facility combines a fabrication shop (equipped with a Donatoni Kronos CNC 5-axis machine imported from Italy, a Flow waterjet cutter, and a Proliner digital templating system), an inventory of more than 500 materials and 8,000+ slabs, and a showroom. A premium sub-brand, Linea Couture, offers exclusive semi-precious and exotic stones under an exclusive New England distribution arrangement with Antolini Luigi Italy.
Cumar generates revenue through project-based custom fabrication and installation of stone elements — countertops, fireplaces, sinks, and full luxury bathroom designs — for high-net-worth residential clients. Pricing is custom-quote-based, varying with material selection, square footage, finish, and fabrication complexity, and projects range from individual bathrooms to entire luxury residences and select hospitality builds (Ritz Carlton Residences, Boston-area hotels and condominiums). The go-to-market combines direct showroom engagement with B2B specification relationships among interior designers, architects, and custom home builders, supported by editorial coverage in Boston Magazine, Design New England, Stone World, and other trade publications, plus event sponsorships (Boston Design Week, Neiman Marcus Boston's Home for the Holidays).
The business is family-owned and operated by founder Ivo Cubi and his daughter Carlotta Cubi (Vice President), with no disclosed external investors, private equity ownership, or parent holding company. Cumar supplements its core services with a dedicated Care & Maintenance department and an online inventory search platform at inventory.cumar.com, and pursues brand-building through co-founding of the Over My Shoulder Foundation mentorship nonprofit.
