Hoogies Hardware

Hoogies commenced trading on a greenfield site at 8 Bell Street, Yarra Glen on May 1, 1978.

Our primary focus was hardware sales. The range was quickly expanded to include timber, plumbing and building supplies. After a few years, we were all out of space.

In 2001, we purchased an additional shop at 14 Bell Street, and plumbing and domestic hardware was sold from here, allowing more space for timber and builder’s hardware from the original premises.

In 1985, a 1acre vacant site was purchased at 9 – 15 Bell Street/Lot 47 Farrell Avenue. Premises were constructed on this site, the original properties were sold, and the consolidated business began trading on the new site in 1987.

In 1999, Hoogies added a Rural Sales Department, focusing on viticulture supplies. After growing spectacularly within the Hardware premises for 7 years, a dedicated Hoogies CRT Rural Showroom was built on the adjacent site at 57 King Street in 2006. Additional roof cover was also provided for the timber yard, and sand and screenings bins were constructed.
