Hillman Solutions Celebrates 60 Years of Business in 2024

Hillman Solutions Corp., a leading provider of hardware products and merchandising solutions, announced the celebration of its 60th anniversary.

Since its founding in 1964, Hillman has grown from a small distributor of fasteners and hardware serving independently-owned hardware stores in southern Ohio and northern Kentucky to the North American leader in hardware solutions, generating $1.5 billion annually. Today, Hillman employs one of the largest direct sales and service teams in the industry, providing customers with flexibility and swift solutions to help address logistics and in-store labor needs for our retail partners.

“The Hillman Group’s culture, values and business model have withstood the test of time for a reason,” says Doug Cahill, chairman, president and CEO of Hillman. “Our commitment to our customers is second to none, something our company’s founder, Max Hillman, instilled and fostered from the start and his two sons, Mick and Rick Hillman, continued for 30 years.”

Although Hillman has grown to ship to over 46,000 locations across the country with a diverse product portfolio of 112,000 SKUs, it continues to take a small-company approach when it comes to customer service.

“We continue to honor the Hillman Family’s humble beginnings and the roots of this company: ensuring exemplary service, support and always going the extra mile,” Cahill says. “We look forward to celebrating this major achievement with our greatest asset, our dedicated associates, throughout 2024.”
