Austin Hardware & Supply Inc. announced the opening of its first location outside the United States in Ingleside, Ontario, Canada. This expansion marks a significant milestone for the company and demonstrates its commitment to serving customers across North America.
The new Ontario location will provide Canadian customers faster access to Austin Hardware’s full range of products, including truck body hardware, adhesives and sealants, fasteners, hinges, drawer slides, and more. With local inventory and dedicated service, customers can expect quicker order fulfillment due to reduced transit times, relief from tariff impact, reduced shipping costs, and personalized support from a team familiar with the unique needs of Canadian manufacturers, distributors, and service providers.
"Expanding into Canada allows us to better serve our valued customers with the products and solutions they rely on every day," said Jack Dudenhoeffer, Executive Vice President at Austin Hardware. "We’re excited to bring our industry expertise, high-quality products, and customer-focused approach closer to our Canadian partners."
The Ontario facility will also support Vendor-Managed Inventory (VMI) programs, custom orders, and technical support, providing Canadian customers the same level of service and operational efficiency that Austin Hardware is known for in the United States.
Shipping from the new Ingleside, Ontario, location is expected to start by early November.
