Young Retailer of the Year!

Cover of Hardware Retailing Magazine

This past month our very own 'BossMan', Crest Hardware owner, Joseph Franquinha, was awarded the honor of 'Young Retailer of the Year' by the North American Retail Hardware Association.

The honor is awarded to young professionals in the hardware retail industry, who have shown achievements in areas of career accomplishments, community involvement, hardware industry education and extracurricular activities.

Joseph was awarded the honor for his outstanding accomplishments in store renovation and improvement, marketing, and his work within the community.  

On behalf of the Crest Hardware team, we congratulate Joseph on receiving this prestigious honor and for all of his diligence  and drive to make Crest Hardware the #1 Hardware Store in NYC!
