Cardi's History unfolds in the year 1901 in the town of Itri, Italy. NI-RO-PE's grandparents, Dominic and Rosa Cardi embarked for America, where they settled in the Knightsville section of Cranston. Rosa opened Cardi's as a general store in 1928. NI-RO-PE's father, Nicholas Cardi Sr., left high school at age 16 to work full time at the store. In 1942 he expanded the furniture business to include appliances and carpeting. Nicholas Cardi Sr.'s brother, Peter, joined the company in 1945. He retired in 1975. Nicholas Jr., Ron, and Peter joined the family business full time after completing college. In 1983, Cardi's furniture opened a Broyhill showcase gallery, one of the first in the country.
