About Pierce & Co.
With roots going back to 1898, when Worth and Vance Pierce ran the store together with Henry Wyche, Pierce & Co. prides itself on not only being one of the oldest continuously run hardware stores in North Carolina but also a local institution and meeting place. A hardware store with a meat market and a little bit of everything in between, if we don't have it, you don't need it. (And if you happen to prove us wrong, just let us know and we will do our best to get it for you!)
South Entrance gets a new roof/porch
Earlier this summer, we got a wonderful surprise by receiving a Backing Small Businesses Grant presented by American Express, in partnership with Main Street America. We're thrilled to be among the 500 recipients of this program!
This grant has allowed us to accelerate our north entrance project that we started last year for our 125th Anniversary. It'll significantly improve the safety of visitors entering and leaving the store, as well as improve the attractiveness and functionality of our entry way.
Thank you for all our support and patience while we keep working on improving our infrastructure!

125th Anniversary Celebration
On September 15th and 16th, we'll be celebrating our 125th anniversary. We'll have food both days from 10am - 2pm along with giveaway, great deals on merchandise, AND a specially made CASE Trapper knife!
A NEW Door!
We've cut through 16" of 100 year old brick and installed a new entrance on the parking lot side! This will provide a safer experience for our customers and brightens up the interior of the store. More improvements to come in this area!!
NEW PRODUCT:
Hand made Glassware
We've been busy unloading newly arrived mouth blown, hand formed glass ware from Poland. These decorative and functional pieces are made by artisans in southern Poland. We've got a limited supply of them directly from the manufactuer. Please come by and check it out.
The partial catalog can be seen here.
And there's also hand made glass Christmas ornaments!!!
EV Charging Stations
We now have 2 Fast DC Charging Stations! They have both CCS, and CHAdeMO connectors and can charge at up to 150kW - getting you some extra juice if you're on the way to the beach or elsewhere!
You'll need the Shell Recharge App to use the stations. Once you have the app downloaded and setup, just scan the QR code on the station, plug-in, charge, and come inside.
In the old days, there were mule / horse hitch posts where the current charging stations are!
