Because we work to shine the spotlight on our members and not ourselves, you might not have heard of Do it Best Corp. It might even surprise you to learn our annual sales surpass $3 billion, making us the largest privately held company in Indiana. We’re also the second largest co-op in the home improvement industry, serving thousands of independently owned locations across the United States and in more than 50 other countries. We have member stores throughout Central and South America, the Caribbean and in numerous countries in Southeast Asia.

We love the diversity of our membership and value the experiences that each of our members brings to the co-op. We have more than 400 employees based in our global headquarters in Fort Wayne, IN, plus over a thousand more in our eight warehouses, what we call Retail Service Centers (RSCs), throughout the U.S. We also have a professional team of regional business consultants who work side-by-side with our members around the world.

We are not a franchise, so our members’ stores go by many different names. Our members could have a store in your hometown named “Joe’s Do it Best®,” or they might just go by “Joe’s Hardware & Lumber.” It’s up to each owner to decide how best to market their business to their community.
