About the Company
Based in Fort Wayne, Ind., we are the only U.S.-based, member-owned, comprehensive and fully integrated hardware, lumber and building materials buying cooperative in the home improvement industry. With annual sales surpassing $3 billion, we are the second largest co-op in the industry, proudly serving thousands of member-owned locations throughout the United States and more than 50 other countries. In addition to our low up-front prices, we provide our members with consistently high year-end rebates—more than $1 billion in the last decade—which enables them to reinvest in their stores by expanding merchandise selection through additional locations and making capital improvements. We have a long-standing history of strength and stability, driven by our industry-leading lowest cost of operations—just 2.12% for the 2017 fiscal year. We continue to maintain the highest credit rating in our distribution channel.
