With competition from Scotty's, Wal-Mart and maybe soon from Home Depot, owner Cliff Tonjes has learned how to compete.

"If you want to be a hardware store and just sell nuts and bolts, you're going to starve," he explains. "You've got to diversify."

One of Tonjes' most successful items has been ready-to-assemble furniture, including desks, bookshelves and hutches, that are delivered already assembled for a fee. The furniture is assembled with the help of family members, including his 5-year-old granddaughter.

Tonjes credits his company's success to building and keeping a clientele. He feels his customers remain loyal because ofthe store's accessibility, shorter lines and personal service.

In addition, as one of the independents involved in the recent merger of Cotter & Co. and ServiStar Coast to Coast, he believes the company will continue thriving.
