Acher Cohen is the CEO of Raphael Stone, with more than 30 years of experience in the natural and engineered stone industry. Across a career that includes roughly 16 years building the business in North America, he has grown Raphael Stone into a trusted name in premium surfaces — working hand in hand with leading factories and a distribution network that serves architects, designers, fabricators, and homeowners.
Acher’s approach has always been hands-on. Having come up through the production and fabrication side of the trade, he understands the material intimately: how each slab is made, how it performs, and how to match the right surface to the right project. That firsthand knowledge informs everything Raphael Stone offers.
A Family Business Built on Quality
Raphael Stone is a family company, named in honor of Acher’s father, Raphael. That legacy of craftsmanship and attention to detail carries through today: Acher’s son, Yaniv, has become deeply involved in operations and serves as his right hand. Together the family has grown the business on a consistent commitment to quality, integrity, and long-term relationships.
An Unparalleled Drive to Succeed
What sets Acher apart is a relentless drive paired with genuine care for the people he works with. Expanding into the United States meant earning trust one project and one fabricator at a time — competing on quality, service, and reliability rather than shortcuts. That same standard guides the team he leads today.
Raphael Stone Collection: A New Chapter
The Raphael Stone Collection represents the next chapter of that vision: a curated range of high-performance porcelain, engineered stone, and natural stone surfaces, backed by reliable distribution and the family’s hands-on expertise. For Acher, it is the natural continuation of a lifetime spent learning the material and serving the people who work with it.
