This week’s {Get to Know} local retailer profile comes from Paula Burke of Burke Brothers Hardware in Raleigh – my go to stop for supplies for my house, yard and even event management supplies for work (think zip ties, caution tape, colored duct tape and so on). The friendly staff helps me get in and out in just minutes.
Here’s Paula’s story:
Burke Brothers Hardware has proudly served the Raleigh area for over 78 years!Burke Brothers was founded by my grandfather, Paul Burke, in 1936. The store was originally named Burke’s Market. When World War II Began, Paul and his younger brother, John, went to serve their country. Upon returning to Raleigh, John joined Paul in the business.
Burke’s Market quickly became a local favorite – not only for their hardware, but also for their people! Today, we continue that elite reputation as the best hardware store in town. Our dedication to customers is the very foundation of our success.
We are still family owned and operated, and Burke Brothers Hardware can fulfill all of your hardware needs. We also carry a wide-range of North Carolina and USA made products to support our local economy. From rekeying locks to advice on how to repair a kitchen sink, our experienced staff will provide you with excellent service and quality merchandise… just as we have since 1936.
Thanks, Paula, for being our very first guest feature in our new {Get to Know} series here on iheartretail.com! If you’re a local retailer and would like to tell your story, please email me at lisa@iheartretail.com.
