🛠️💡 A & B Hardware
Founded in 1976, A & B Hardware S.A. has grown into one of Haiti’s most trusted names in the hardware and building‑materials retail sector. The company remains family‑owned and managed, and has established a long‑standing distribution partnership with Do it Best (formerly HWI) for over 25 years, underscoring its commitment to bringing international‑grade products to the Haitian market.
From its flagship store in Port‑au‑Prince, A & B Hardware serves both the professional‑construction segment (contractors, developers, institutional clients) and retail homeowners by offering a broad selection of tools, materials and appliances. Over the decades it has positioned itself as the “go‑to” destination for large‑scale projects and high‑quality brands, with a reputation for reliability, range and service.
The company’s mission is to empower Haiti’s construction and renovation ecosystem by supplying durable, branded materials and tools—backed by knowledgeable staff, dependable stock and efficient logistics. In a market often constrained by availability, A & B Hardware differentiates itself by combining import‑scale product breadth with local customer responsiveness.
Its key strengths: long‑standing international partnerships, deep inventory across categories (hardware, plumbing, electrical, garden/outdoor, appliances), and the ability to serve high‑end as well as everyday segments. In comparison to many smaller quincailleries (hardware stores) in the region, A & B Hardware stands out for its full‑spectrum offering, import‑grade brands, and capacity to supply both retail and construction/industrial clients.
