A family run business serving Toronto's Annex community since 1922.
Wiener's Hardware was founded in 1923 by Hyman Wiener, at it's present location of 432 Bloor Street West. It was a family oriented, community based store, as the Wieners lived in the Annex. They offered personal service with products at competitive pricing. Hyman's son, Gerry, came to work with his dad after he finished high school, and together they built up the business and their reputation as a great hardware store. As time past, Hyman retired, Gerry married, had a family of his own, and continued to run a friendly, service oriented, community based store. Gerry was always looking for ways to better his business, so in 1965, when a small, new company came along and spoke to him about what they could do to help grow the business, Gerry jumped at the opportunity. The company was called Home Hardware, and Wiener's Home Hardware came into being. In 1968, Gerry's son Marty, the third generation of Wiener, began his carrier in the family business. When Marty graduated university, he also began working full time with his Dad and the staff of that day. Again, time moved forward, Marty married, had a family of his own, but continued to work closely with Gerry in the store. Sadly, in July of 1991, Gerry past away very suddenly. Despite this tragic and sudden loss, Marty and the Staff of Wiener's Home Hardware continued forward in the traditions taught to them by Gerry. Service, friendliness, a well stocked and clean store enabled them to thrive. In 1998, Marty expanded the business into the building next door, almost doubling their size. (see picture below) It enabled Wiener's to carry more lines, better display product and better service their customers. As Marty's children grew up, they also came into the store and continued the Wiener tradition of Hardware Retailing in the family store, making it four generations in the same location.
Today, Wiener's Home Hardware continues to operate a community based store, offering friendly service from knowledgeable staff, the way Hyman Wiener did 83 years ago.
