About us
Based in Fort Wayne, Ind., we are the only U.S.-based, member-owned, comprehensive and fully integrated hardware, lumber and building materials buying cooperative in the home improvement industry. With annual sales of nearly $5 billion, we are proudly serving thousands of member-owned locations throughout the United States and more than 50 other countries. In addition to our low up-front prices, we provide our members with consistently high year-end rebates—more than $1 billion in the last decade—which enables them to reinvest in their stores by expanding merchandise selection through additional locations and making capital improvements. We have a long-standing history of strength and stability, driven by our industry-leading lowest cost of operations—just 2.12% for the 2017 fiscal year. We continue to maintain the highest credit rating in our distribution channel. Interested in joining our team? With a variety of different disciplines and opportunities to explore new roles, you can find a career with us that brings out the best in you. Visit www.doitbestcareers.com to learn more.
