Okanagan Hardware & Supply has joined the Home Hardware network after more than 25 years as an independent retailer in Oliver, BC.
The store is locally owned and operated by Logan Malmberg and Kianna Carvalho and will remain independent while gaining access to the support and buying power of Canada’s largest Dealer-owned home improvement retailer.
“Choosing Home Hardware was an easy decision for us,” said Logan. “We looked for a partner that supports independent businesses and understands the importance of local relationships. Home Hardware gives us both the hardlines and LBM programs to continue growing while staying true to who we are and the community we’ve proudly served for years.”
The family owned business began in 1999 and doubled in size in 2014, expanding its offering to include lumber and building materials.
“When successful independent businesses choose to join Home Hardware, it speaks volumes about the strength of our Dealer-owned model,” said John Pierce, Chief Retail Operations Officer, Home Hardware Stores Limited. “Logan, Kianna and their team have earned the trust of customers throughout the Oliver community, and we’re proud to welcome them to the Home Hardware network of proud Dealer-Owners.”
Home Hardware was founded more than 60 years ago in St. Jacobs, Ontario and today has nearly 1,000 stores as the country’s largest Dealer-Owned and operated home improvement retailer.
