Scotty's Builders Supply was an American retailer of home improvement, construction products and services. The company that at its peak operated approximately 150 stores, closed its doors in 2005. The company was also known as Scotty's Hardware and Scotty's Home Builders. == History == The company has its beginnings in the 1920s Florida land boom when new residents poured into the state to build houses, hotels and other businesses. A young Georgia farmer working in Winter Haven recognized the demand for building materials and in 1924 opened "Home Builders Supply" in Winter Haven. Mr Sweet (the father of James Sweet) started with one store in 1924, and in 1925 it became incorporated, from that point it grew to almost 150 stores. Scotty's was instrumental in helping supply building materials to the early real estate booms of Florida. Scotty's, overcome by the very competitive home improvement market, closed all the stores in 2005. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Scotty's Builders Supply」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
