Hardware Hank
We are a wholesale hardware distributor serving retail hardware stores, home centers, lumber yards, and similar independent dealers. We buy hardware and related merchandise in quantity and sell it to our customers in smaller lots on a cost-plus basis, helping them stock their stores with competitive pricing. Our product mix includes automotive, electrical, farm and rural, hardware, housewares, lawn and garden, plumbing and heating, tools, paint, sporting goods, and other home maintenance and leisure items. We also provide branded store identities, private-label and national-brand merchandise, and systems and procedures to support day-to-day retail operations. Most orders are filled from our warehouse, and some can also be shipped directly from manufacturers through us.
