Hardware Distribution Warehouses, Inc. was formed from the merger of three companies in Nov. 1994. The predecessor companies were South States, Inc of Shreveport, LA, Henderson & Baird Company, Greenwood, MS and Higginbotham-Pearlstone Hardware Company, Dallas, TX. South States acquired Henderson & Baird in 1984 and Higginbotham-Pearlstone in 1994 and operated both as wholly owned subsidiaries until merging them on Nov. 1, 1994, into South States. At the same time, South States changed its name to Hardware Distribution Warehouses, Inc., more commonly known as HDW, Inc. Interested in joining our team?
