The foundation is poured, and the four walls are almost complete for the new 17,000-square-foot hardware store at Belletetes in Andover. A November 2016 re-opening is anticipated.
When Belletetes purchased the RP Johnson and Son building supply business in July of 2013, they immediately realized the need for a larger hardware store and the importance of having it on the same property as the Drive-Thru Lumberyard and Millwork Showcase. The new hardware store will connect to the existing 5,000-square-foot Millwork building. This will give customers the opportunity to shop for kitchen and bath cabinets and countertops or doors and windows and walk into the hardware store to shop for their accessories, match paint colors or shop for anything else they need – all under one roof!
The Small Engine and Rental Center will also be housed within the new hardware store. Belletetes’ goal is to make their customers’ shopping experience one that they will want to return again and again.
Over a century ago, Elie Belletete began with a general store in Jaffrey and believed that high quality products and outstanding customer service was the foundation for a lasting and successful business. Belletetes’ commitment to those beliefs have remained the same, and the proof is the growth of the business over the years, now having eight building supplies locations throughout New Hampshire and one in Massachusetts.
Today, as it was back then, Belletetes has found that what matters most is having the right products at the right prices and the most highly-trained staff to maximize their service and your satisfaction.
Belletetes is much more than just a hardware store; the new store will continue to stock hardware, plumbing, electrical, lawn and garden, power tools, hand tools, and Benjamin Moore paint and paint sundries. These product lines will expand, and new product lines will be added, filling out the new retail space.
With the Drive-Thru Lumberyard, Millwork Showcase and new hardware store all on the same side of Route 11, customers can shop for their building supplies, millwork, paint, hardware, and more all in one convenient location.
