At Emery Jensen we honor our independent retailers who are fixtures in their communities. These hard-working stores are the backbone of main streets across the country, and we are proud to be their partners in business.

Hancock Lumber
Maine & New Hampshire

Being in the lumber business since 1848 says more about Hancock Lumber’s commitment to the future than it does about their past. Today they are a 7th generation family-owned integrated forest products company who is passionate about their people-first and values-driven culture. Led by their 650 employees, Hancock Lumber has been awarded ‘Best Place to Work in Maine’ according to a statewide program annually since 2014.

Kittles began four generations ago in January, 1955 and although the store went through a change of ownership and reset to Emery Jensen in 2019, Kittle family members remain involved and engaged with the business today.

Moore Supply
Valley View, Pennsylvania

By being a constant presence in their community, the majority of Moore Supply’s advertising is done by word-of-mouth. Each spring they host a community event and this year was no exception.

They take great pride in the jobs they provide and the livelihoods they impact each and every day by what they do.

Benson Lumber
Londonderry, New Hampshire

Benson Lumber opened in 1913 and is entering their 5th generation of family ownership! It began as a lumberyard, and has evolved over the years to include a full garden center, and has now become a destination for outdoor living and grilling in their community. They attribute their success to their dedicated and knowledgeable staff who work as experts in their industry and know how to execute quality customer service.

Rhoden’s
Glen St. Mary, Florida

When purchased seven years ago, this was a small feed and seed store with very limited hardware. They are now a full-blown hardware store known for their customer service, and even have other local businesses sending their own customers to Rhoden’s based on that service. They still have the old nails by the pound system that came with the store, shown at left!

Cranesville, Pennsylvania

Kennedy’s Hardware has been serving its community and the surrounding area since 1881. In 2020, the store went through a total renovation to update the interior, fixtures and add new product lines.
