About this listen

Dozier Smith T, a third-generation owner, shares how a 1931 family hardware business stays lean, fast, and rooted in relationships while adapting to new tech and changing customer habits. We trace the store’s heritage, the realities of small-business life, and the charm of a historic building with a hidden Coca-Cola mural.

• origins of the store and family lineage
• how summers in the shop and accounting training shaped leadership
• benefits and tensions of a family-owned business
• small-team operations, lean overhead, many hats
• adapting to technology without losing personal service
• why face-to-face advice beats endless scrolling
• the building’s history and the uncovered Coca-Cola mural
• what makes the store unique: speed, honesty, right-fit solutions
• location details and how to get in touch
