Cole Hardware has been around since the 1920s, when it first opened to serve the Cole Valley neighborhood of San Francisco. Company founder, Dave Karp, purchased the store in 1959 and ran the entire operation as a one-man band. He had a genuine desire to help everyone who walked through his door—ideally making them laugh along the way! His approach to running his business could be summed up by the sign he hung over the cash register, with this motto: “There are no strangers here, just friends we haven’t met.”

Stop by the convient East Bay location in Rockridge at 5533 College Avenue or one of the 6 locations in San Fransico.
