► The Elmwood Group Opens Independant Furniture Store
One of Home Hardware Stores Limited’s largest dealer groups, the Elmwood Group in Moncton, N.B., has launched its newly rebranded independent furniture store, North Elm Furniture & More, following Home Hardware’s exit from the furniture category. While the group’s seven Home Hardware Building Centres across southeast New Brunswick will remain under the Home Hardware banner, the new furniture venture will focus on greater operational control, expanded product offerings, and enhanced customer experience. According to Jonathon Stephenson, Director of Marketing and Design Operations, prior investments in e-commerce, faster fulfilment, and outdoor living brands such as YETI, Big Green Egg, and Traeger helped position North Elm for a confident transition.
