Alberton Hardware celebrated a milestone last year by serving the community and surrounding areas for 50 years.

Founded five decades ago, the family-run business is one of the region’s most trusted and well-known stores.

Found on 33 Van Riebeeck Avenue, Alberton North, it has become more than a place to buy tools and materials.

For generations of customers, it has been the destination for DIY essentials, paint, plumbing, electrical supplies, power tools and building materials.

Many value the store for its wide variety of products, friendly service and knowledgeable staff.

To mark its 50th anniversary and look ahead, Alberton Hardware hosted a gala evening at the Glenvista Country Club to thank customers, suppliers, staff and friends who have supported it throughout its journey.

The celebration reflected the strong relationships that have helped the company grow and succeed over the years.

Alongside the gala evening, Alberton Hardware held an in-store celebration from October 13 to November 15.

Customers enjoyed promotions, supplier stands and live demonstrations from leading brands, giving them the chance to see new products in action and get practical advice.

The famous Dulux dogs also participated in the celebrations. Customers were delighted to meet them in the store and take photos, creating memorable moments for families and visitors of all ages.

The celebrations highlighted the values that have guided Alberton Hardware for 50 years: Quality products, trusted brands and personal service. As it looks ahead, its strong community connection remains at the heart of everything it does.
