Home Hardware was founded in 1963 by a group of independent hardware
dealers in Ontario. The goal of the company was to obtain the
advantages of quantity purchasing which would give them the ability
to compete with any form of competition.
The company grew quickly and soon included hardware stores from
Atlantic Canada. The partnership continued to expand and in 1981,
hardware dealers in Western Canada joined forces to form a group
of Home Hardware stores from coast to coast.
Over the years, 3 distinct brands have developed within the
Home Hardware family - hardware stores (Home Hardware), building
supply stores (Home Building Centre), and hardware/building supply
stores (Home Hardware Building Centre).

Today, there are more than 1000 Home Hardware stores located across
Canada. As before, they remain independent dealers, full of great
ideas, helpful advice, and active members of the communities they
serve.

Yarmouth Home Hardware was originally located down town on Main Street.
Today, a newly renovated Saulnier's Home Hardware is located on
Starrs road in Yarmouth.
