Petroleum News

John Horjes, executive director for Diamond Grid USA & Canada, announced July 13 that Diamond Grid is now an approved vendor for Ace Hardware. “We are pleased to join Ace Hardware as a vendor to their many locations in the United States, Canada, and around the world.

“Our EDI system is currently ‘on-boarding’ with Ace, and we expect to be available for purchase within 30 days.”

Ace Hardware Corp. is the second-largest dealer-owned cooperative in the United States. The co-op pools buying and promotions for its 5,100-local hardware, home center and lumber stores located in all 50 of the United States as well as in 65 foreign countries and territories. Ace’s emphasis on service and modern retailing techniques has helped locally owned and operated Ace retail stores confront intense competition from such home improvement powerhouses as Home Depot and Builders Square. The co-op manufactures its own line of paints and also supplies other products under the Ace brand.

Diamond Grid is a global market leader in surface stabilization and erosion control systems. With manufacturing in 12 and distribution in over 20 countries, Diamond Grid can be found used in many projects and industries worldwide, to include: DIY, landscape, construction, golf, equestrian, livestock, state, federal, roads, aviation, oil, power, mining, marine, transportation and freight forwarding.
