Why Canadians Choose Home Hardware 🇨🇦
Keep It Canuck Strong
When you shop Home Hardware, you’re not just fixing a home — you’re supporting Canada.

🛠 Proudly Canadian since 1964
Home Hardware was founded in St. Jacobs, Ontario, by Walter J. Hachborn and a group of independent hardware store owners who believed Canadians deserved a Canadian alternative to big‑box chains. Today, it remains 100% Canadian‑owned and operated. [en.wikipedia.org], [homehardware.ca]

🏪 Dealer‑Owned. Community‑Rooted.
Unlike U.S.-owned chains, Home Hardware is a dealer‑owned cooperative. That means each store is locally owned by Canadians, not foreign shareholders. Profits stay in your community — supporting local jobs and families across the country. [en.wikipedia.org], [epe.lac-bac.gc.ca]
🇨🇦 Canadian Dollars Stay in Canada
Home Hardware’s headquarters, distribution centres, and manufacturing (including BeautiTone Paint, made in Ontario) are all Canadian — helping strengthen our national economy. [homehardware.ca]

📍 Compare That To the Alternatives
• Home Depot is an American multinational headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia
• RONA, while proudly Canadian in roots, is currently owned by U.S.-based private equity firm Sycamore Partners after being sold by Lowe’s [en.wikipedia.org] [en.wikipedia.org], [prnewswire.com]

💪 Choosing Home Hardware is a Choice for Canada
Stronger communities. Local decision‑making. Canadian ownership.
That’s what we call keeping it
