In the summer of 2008, we added an additional 500 sq ft. of covered deck to display patio, porch, and Amish furniture.
Zoller Hardware opened on September, 26, 1994 as a proprietorship. On October 1, 1996 Zoller Hardware incorporated and became a Sub-S Corporation know as Zoller Hardware, Inc., dba, Zoller Hardware, Gifts & Gadgets Mercantile.
We are a stockholder/member of Do it Best, Corp., a member owned, wholesale buying group. This allows our pricing to be competitive, it eliminates the need for our customers to travel to larger towns for lower prices. This store is built to the specifications of the development and is an anchor store for this shopping area.
The store has a tradition of being sparkling clean, attractive and well stocked. This along with our full-service family atmosphere make shopping with us a pleasure. We carry such a complete line of merchandise that the comment, "I can always find what I need here" could be our motto.
One of the things customers love about Zoller's is the large housewares and gift departments. This makes our store as attractive to women as it is to men. This store with its front porch, country charm and warmth beckons travelers as well as residents. It is a well stocked hardware that supplies the hardiest of handymen, while enticing women to browse and shop with us too.
Zoller Hardware, Inc. caters to the homeowner for hardware and gift sales, but also supplies a number of plumbing contractors, electricians, home builders, mechanics, and lawn and garden contractors. Store charge accounts are welcome and we maintain around 300 active revolving charge accounts.
Jim and Paula Zoller work this store as a "Mom & Pop" operation in order to keep the overhead in line as well as insure the friendly accommodating atmosphere that is a must for a successful hardware store business.
The Zollers have over 50 years of hardware family experience.
