REDD'S ACE HARDWARE

Story

Redd's Ace Hardware, was established in 1909 as the "Grayson Co-op". The original general store was established by the founding settlers of the new community of "Grayson Utah". The mercantile was established as a way for these individuals to have access to the products and supplies that they needed to allow them to prosper in the new community. In 1911 Parley Redd was hired to manage the new Co-op store for the community. Parley worked very hard and began purchasing the shares of stock owned by the other members of the community. In 1938 Parley had purchased the last of the remaining stock owned by the community and became the sole owner, changing the name of the store to "Parley Redd's Mercantile". The store has continued under the ownership of the Redd Family from 1911 until today. Over this 100 plus year journey the same basic principle remains that necessitated the opening of the store, and that is "Making sure that the individuals in this community and the surrounding four corners region have access to the products and supplies that they need, to all them to prosper in this area. When you visit Redd's today we hope that you will find that same sense of community, service, value and helpfulness that the community of Grayson, and it's general store were founded on.
