Warehouse Update from House-Hasson Hardware

01.31.24

Good news!

  • A structural engineer inspection is scheduled for Friday, Feb. 2, for our Knoxville warehouse Building A, in which a steel support roof I-beam bent and broke in the major winter snowfall of Jan. 15 and 16. Snowfall amounts made it difficult at first for work crews to even get to the warehouse, but since their arrival, structural reinforcements have been proceeding rapidly. Assuming the inspection goes well, Building A will be back in full operation by Monday Feb. 5. In the interim, we’re working hard to fill orders from our warehouse in Prichard, West Virginia. 
  • When we receive the all-clear for use of Building A, we’ll be working to eliminate any order backlog. 
  • We will begin shipping goods purchased at our Nashville Leap Into Savings Dealer Market starting February 12. After the damage caused by the snowfall, we rented a 100,000 square-foot warehouse across the street from our Knoxville warehouses and offices. This contingency tactic will enable us to ship market-ordered items without delay.   

A personal note: 

Our business is to supply you with items to sell in your stores: the Mother Nature-caused, once-in-our-history disruption has been challenging, and frustrating, for you and for us. Please be assured that everything we can do, we’re doing, because your profitability is our priority. 

If anything should occur that affects the timetable I’ve outlined above, you’ll know right away. But with the pace of work to get Building A up and running, we’re optimistic about what will take place over the next few days. 

Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, for your understanding. I understand if your patience is being tested, but from our dealers’ comments at the market, we’re gratified by the concern dealers are showing for us. That’s very much appreciated, but our concern is for you, and to get you everything you need as soon as we can get it to you. 

Sincerely,  

Steve Henry
