2017 True Value was offered for sale

• In July 2017 True Value was offered for sale, and competitor Ace Hardware (with about 5,000 locations) expressed interest in buying.

How can a co-op be bought and sold -- what would it actually mean?-71.174.175.10 (talk) 18:20, 2 August 2017 (UTC)

Not a co-op anymore. True Value is now a wholesaler. Please update. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:306:CF93:BD0:C9FB:99B:DBD4:E140 (talk) 05:52, 28 April 2018 (UTC)

Coast to Coast stores history

I was looking for information on the history of the Coast to Coast store chain, but any Wikipedia search for that name redirects here, which has very little information about it. The chain may have been subsumed by True Value financially, but not topically. More information about the history of the Coast to Coast chain should be included here.

1000 stores in Hanover Township???

In the History section... "In 2019 True Value announced a new 1.4 million square foot facility, set to open that fall, intended to service approximately 1,000 stores located in Hanover Township, Pennsylvania."

With 1,000 True Value stores in Hanover Township, that town must be the hardware capital of the world!

I'm petty sure the sentence should read: "In 2019 True Value announced a new 1.4 million square foot facility in Hanover Township, Pennsylvania, set to open that fall, intended to service approximately 1,000 stores [nationwide or something]."

But the reference is behind a paywall so I can't verify that's what it means. Gwideman (talk) 21:56, 11 January 2025 (UTC)

Thanks for pointing that out! I have fixed the poorly-written sentence. Iggy pop goes the weasel (talk) 16:19, 14 January 2025 (UTC)
