Ace Hardware Town Hall

About Ace Hardware:

Ace Hardware has thousands of stores around the world. They have small, urban stores, large rural stores, and everything in between. Ace Hardware stores offer a wide variety of paint, lawn and garden, tools, local niche services, and virtually anything you'll ever need to fix, repair, and maintain your home. And of course, Ace is most certainly the place with the HELPFUL HARDWARE FOLKS.

Founded in 1924 by a small group of Chicago hardware store owners, Ace Hardware changed the retail landscape by allowing individual stores to purchase merchandise in bulk, saving money and buying at the lowest possible price. This partnership enabled even the smaller stores to compete effectively at retail despite larger stores in their market. And to this very day, Ace Hardware Corporation is still owned solely and exclusively by the local Ace retail entrepreneurs.
