True Value

With 4,500+ of locations across the U.S. and globally, True Value Hardware is a leading cooperative of independently owned hardware stores, providing a wide range of home improvement products, tools, and services.

Founded in 1948 as the Cotter & Company, True Value operates on a cooperative model, allowing local store owners to benefit from collective buying power, shared resources, and a strong brand presence, while maintaining their independent businesses. Known for its personalized customer service, True Value offers products for DIY projects, home maintenance, outdoor living, and more. In late 2024, True Value Hardware was acquired by Do It Best.
