DHC Supplies, Inc. About Us Page

DHC Supplies is a 100% ESOP (Employee Stock Ownership Plan) Company that takes great pride in our level of service and enthusiasm. We were originally established as Don Hoban Company in 1961 by it's founder, Donald J. Hoban. When Don started the company his emphasis was selling and renting equipment and parts to masonry and plastering contractors in the Sacramento, California area. In 1966 after being incorporated Don started expanding his product lines to include structural hardware and pneumatic tools and fasteners. Eventually the company also moved into supplying small concrete contractors with concrete tools and supplies.

In 1972 Don expanded the business by opening a new store in the Reno, Nevada area. This branch played a major role in the expansion of both sales and products of the company. In the early 90's Don made two more decisions that have impacted our company to this day. The first was to begin the process of selling the company stock to a newly formed Don Hoban Company ESOP. The second was to purchase a branch of Golden Gate Equipment in Novato, California. This branch was later moved to Santa Rosa, California.

With the added enthusiasm of employee ownership and two locations covering Northern California and Northern Nevada we were now poised to expand and improve our company to meet the needs of the growing construction businesses. Today, we are continuing to make improvements to address the ever changing landscape of the construction business. This dedication to always looking to find a better way is one of the commitments we have made to differentiate us from the many competitors in our business. Another difference that sets us apart from many of our competitors is our fierce determination to remain personal and independent. Our pride will not allow us to be swallowed up by some faceless large company that has no emotional or personal tie to it's workforce and community. Whereas many of the small specialized companies in the building supplies industry have been absorbed by large enterprises we will always stay focused on increasing our customer base through hard work and dedication. We have always been committed to providing the quality products and outstanding service to our customers. That is the difference that sets us apart from our competitors. To reflect this fact that we are a company of many people and not one individual the decision was made in 2004 to change the name to DHC Supplies, Inc.
