“Probably one of the coolest ace hardware stores i have ever been to. They have art supplies, housing supplies, health and wellness products and everything in between. Very useful and organized”
“Sam and Art are always friendly, professional, and incredibly helpful. If you need parts for your property or any plumbing supplies, they’re the best. They always go above and beyond to make sure you get what you need. I highly recommend Ferguson in Eagle-Vail!”
“I'm going with four stars because it's a huge Home Depot up in the mountains where we're lucky to have it. The selection and inventory is pretty good even during the winter season.However, there's also a big annoyance of mine with this location. The Verizon cell coverage in the area is horrible, to the point that I often can't even make a phone call from their parking lot. Additionally, Home Depot hasn't deployed wifi hotspots out to the parking lot. Why is this relevant? Well, because it means curbside pickup is useless if you're a Verizon customer because with no cell+data and no wifi, there's no way to use the app, or phone, to let the store know you're there when you pull into a curbside pickup spot. No one from the store watches the spots, so sitting there for a while won't help you.”
“Terry was very helpful. I explained my intended project and he helped me with all supplies I needed. We were very surprised when he said it was only his 3rd day. Great service.”

Lowe's is giving its loyalty program a makeover to better serve small and mid-sized professional contractors. The home improvement retailer has changed its MVPs Pro Rewards & Partnership Program into the new MyLowe's Pro Rewards. The updated program aims to make life easier for professionals while offering more benefits from their first purchase.
Ace Hardware is reimagining itself with a new store concept. The home improvement retailer plans to invest over $1 billion in the next five years to roll out "Elevate Ace" across new and existing locations. The revamped stores will feature brand showrooms, expanded product lines, and enhanced customer service. Some locations will even boast outdoor spaces with live plant displays. Ace gave retailers a sneak peek at the concept during its recent Chicago convention. While a few stores will debut the new look later this year, the full rollout begins in January.
Ace Hardware is hammering out an impressive growth story. The retailer-owned cooperative is celebrating its 100th anniversary with a bang, reaching 5,000 U.S. stores and planning to open 200 new locations in 2024. The company hit a milestone when it opened its 100th new store this year in Henderson, Nevada. Another newcomer, Fixit Ace Hardware in Roswell, Georgia, became the 5,000th domestic Ace store.
In the latest move of its growth plan, leading paint maker Dunn-Edwards just opened 17 new retail locations throughout Northern California. This expansion of physical stores boosts the company's footprint in the region by over 50%.
The expansion caps an exciting time for the nearly 100-year-old company. With its 100th anniversary in 2025, Dunn-Edwards is strengthening its market position through planned growth focused on better serving pros, homeowners and employees.
