Hagan Ace Hardware is a member of the largest retailer-owned hardware cooperative in the industry. Ace Hardware began as a small chain of stores in 1924, and has grown to include more than 4,700 stores in all 50 states and more than 70 countries worldwide. As part of a dealer cooperative, most Ace Hardware stores are independently owned.
Our local Hagan Ace story begins with two people, and today is evolving into a fourth generation business. The founders, Don and Ann Brandies Hagan, were born and raised in Callahan, Florida. In 1950, Don began working part-time at Brandies Hardware store, owned by Ann’s parents Cliff and Lucille Brandies.
