“Well done, Sally and Lee!” The Sally and Lee Sherman era of major appliance retailing in Tulsa ended on July 31st when the couple retired from Hahn Appliance Warehouse. The Shermans purchased the retail business from Shelton Hahn, Sr., in 1983. The couple managed the store at 6540 East 41st until 2008 when the Shermans, and new partner Mike Walker, moved it to a larger building at 8160 East 41st Street. The locally-owned company opened an Oklahoma City store in 2012 and then, in 2013, opened the newly constructed 42,000 square foot Hahn Appliance Warehouse store along with a 90,000 square foot warehouse at 6710 South 105th East Avenue. The store on 41st Street is now Hahn Appliance Outlet. A career dream for Lee was the company achieving a place on the industry’s list of Top 100 Appliance Stores in the U.S. based on annual sales. The dream was realized in 2015 when Hahn ranked #35 on the list…and again in 2016 with a #34 position. This year, Hahn Appliance Warehouse received recognition as one of 11 major appliance retailers in the nation who are “leading the charge” according to TWICE, a national magazine reporting on the major appliance industry. We salute Sally and Lee on 34 years of outstanding business success in Tulsa. Alice Hewett ABC Equipment Rental
