Waters True Value Great Bend

Waters Hardware is a family-owned, Kansas-based company with more than 125 years of serving our communities. From a small general store in Manchester, Kansas in 1894, we grew to 7 store locations across the state. In 2019, Waters, Inc. was purchased by Gerken Rent-All, which is owned and operated by the Gerken family since 2002. This brought us to 12 hardware stores with rental (2 with lumberyards also), and 13 stand-alone rental locations. In 2021, we added 4 new hardware locations: 2 Euston Hardware locations, Pack’s Hardware and an additional Waters location (formerly Oskaloosa Lumber).
