Westlake Ace Hardware builds in Texas

Ace subsidiary Westlake Ace Hardware is getting ready to open a new location in Lewsville, Texas, this fall.

The company has signed a lease at 1116 W. Main Street in Lewisville for a 10,800-sq.-ft. space, which will include 9,000 sq. ft. of retail space and a large Garden Center.

The new location also already has a general manager: 10-year Westlake employee Loren Casey.

“Westlake Hardware is a growing, vibrant brand and valuable resource for our customers in the markets we serve,” said Tom Knox, CEO of Westlake. “Our mission is to help customers keep their households running smoothly by providing the highest level of service, know-how, and products. We look forward to becoming a trusted and valuable member of the Lewisville community.”

Westlake Ace Hardware currently operates 90 stores in Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa, Oklahoma, Texas and New Mexico. It has been part of the Ace network since 1959, and a wholly owned Ace subsidiary since 2012.
