Pleasants Hardware expands again

Pleasants Hardware is adding its third location in three years.

The 10,000-square-foot store will be in Powhatan, Va., in the South Creek Shopping Center, said the retailer.

“Our goal is to provide the Powhatan community with outstanding customer service and access to quality products and expertise. We’re going to do that and more in this location,” said Joe Taylor, president and CEO of Pleasants Hardware.

The new location will have an expanded outdoor area for lawn and garden and nursery products and will carry a wide product selection of top brands in these categories like Scotts and Jonathan Green, said the company.

“We’re working nonstop to get this new store opened this spring,” said Darrell Campbell, general manager of Pleasants Hardware.

“We can’t wait to deliver an exceptional home improvement shopping experience for this community,” said Campbell. “We’re excited to be a part of Powhatan.”

Customers will also be able to shop for grills from Big Green Egg and Traeger; outdoor power equipment from Stihl; paint lines such as Benjamin Moore; and Channellock hand tools, said the retailer.

“We’re grateful for the over 100 years of strong support Pleasants has enjoyed in the Richmond area, and we look forward to expanding in this new market,” said Taylor.

Pleasants Hardware and Taylor’s Do it Center, members of Do it Best, are family-owned and locally operated hardware stores serving Richmond and Hampton Roads, now with 21 locations.
