What
is the Lowes company all about? Lowes has been
improving home improvement for over 58 years.
Lowes is certainly the Home Improvement superstore.
Lowes home improvement stores contain aisles
and aisles of items to help every do-it-yourselfer
with virtually any home project. Your experience
level doesn’t matter. Many Lowes home improvement
locations even offers tutorial sessions to help
you with your home improvement project.
The Lowes company was born in North Carolina,
United States. H. Carl Buchan, part owner of
the North Wilkesboro Hardware Company, had a
vision for a chain of hardware stores. Lowes
at that time was just a small little hardware
and general store.
In 1961, the company went public and sales grew.
Lowes cut out the wholesaler and went directly
to the manufacturer which made them able to offer
their customers much better prices on their hardware,
appliances and building materials.
In
1982, Lowes had a billion dollar sales year.
It would be the first but not the last. Lowes
earned over 425 million in profit that year.
Lowes offered business to a new type of customer – the
do it yourselfer. More and more people wanted
to learn to fix their own broken items and do
their own renovations. Lowes was there to help
them out by offerring the tools and supplies
at affordable prices.
Today, Lowes is still the leader in home improvement
chain stores. Pretty much any home improvement
project you can think of, they have the supplies
for you to complete it. Their customer service
is excellent and their sales associates will
help you with your projects.
