Eugene True Value Celebrates 100 Years of Serving the Community

September 19, 20252 min read

This year marks a milestone that only a few local businesses ever reach: Eugene True Value Hardware is celebrating its 100th Anniversary! Since 1925, we’ve been honored to serve the Eugene community with quality products, trusted advice, and a friendly smile.

For a century, our family-owned store has been more than just a place to buy tools and supplies—it’s been a gathering place where neighbors help neighbors, projects come to life, and generations of families have found support for their homes, businesses, and DIY dreams.

A Family Tradition of Service

“As we celebrate 100 years, we want to say thank you,” share owners Lucy and Terry White. “Eugene True Value has always been more than a hardware store—it’s part of the fabric of our community, and this milestone belongs to all of us.”

Their son, Doug White, who now manages the store, added: “It’s an honor to carry forward the tradition my parents and grandparents built. We’re proud to provide the same friendly service Eugene has counted on for 100 years—and we look forward to the next century.”

Thank You, Eugene

This celebration is about more than a single store—it’s about all of you who have supported Eugene True Value over the years. Whether you’re a longtime customer or a first-time visitor, we invite you to come be part of this historic milestone.
