Compton Ace Hardware plans second location at The Bray. STORY POSTED 2 HOURS AGO You May Like The owners of Compton Ace Hardware in Crestline Park plan to build a 12,000- to 15,000-square-foot store at The Bray in Liberty Park. FURTHER REFERENCES Posted in: Places:
Compton Ace Hardware plans second location at The Bray. September 2, 2026 2:36 PM The family behind Compton Ace Hardware in Crestline Park is planning a second hardware store at The Bray in Liberty Park, with construction expected to begin by the end of the year. The new Compton Ace Hardware will be built on a 1-acre parcel off Collier Drive, across from the Medical Properties Trust headquarters and next to the Publix-anchored Marketplace at The Bray. The store is expected to encompass 12,000 to 15,000 square feet, making it larger than the family's existing Ace Hardware at 4500 Montevallo Road. The Compton family has owned the Crestline Park store for about 4[1/2] years and has been in the convenience store business for 47 years. President Brent Compton said the family already serves customers from Liberty Park at its Crestline Park location and has been working on plans for the new store for some time. The family planned to work with an architect on details for the project and hoped to begin construction by the end of 2026, with the store opening in about 12 months. Cole Compton, operations manager at the Crestline Park store, will serve in the same role at the Liberty Park location. The family's history in the area began with the opening of its first CC Food Mart convenience store in Crestline 47 years ago. It now operates additional convenience stores in Inverness and at Montclair Road and Oporto-Madrid Boulevard in Birmingham. Four generations of the family currently work at the Crestline Park Ace Hardware. "We never imagined we would find another neighborhood location so perfectly suited for an Ace Hardware," Brent Compton said. The Bray is a 700-acre mixed-use development conceived by Liberty Park Joint Venture. James Parsons, president of Liberty Park Joint Venture, said the locally owned hardware store aligned with the development's vision for the community.

Ace Hardware opening in Shuwaikh. Ace Hardware are opening a new location in Shuwaikh, right across the Street from Bin Nisf, and down the street from True Values and JAS. It's an interesting location opening up right across from a competitor, but it might explain why Bin Nisf is now suddenly selling kitchenware and back to school stuff (check below). The first Ace location in Al Rai also closed down for renovation, hopefully that reopens soon since it's my favorite branch from the other two I visit which are Salmiya and Hawally. Which reminds me of a point I wanted to discuss, the new location doesn't seem to have much parking. That whole intersection is a mess as is with barely any parking, so not sure what the plan is. Since 248AM is on the topic, Bin Nisf launched a new redesigned website recently and I like it. For anybody who gets as far south as Al Khiran, there is a fantastic and roomy Ace Hardware store down there. Definitely my favourite in Kuwait, even if I leave there with the one thing I wanted and 9 I didn't know I wanted!
Major US retailers have received over $5 billion in tariff refunds this week alone, with Walmart getting $2.9 billion, Target $994 million, and Home Depot $730 million. The Trump administration is refunding approximately $166 billion in tariff revenue after the Supreme Court struck down its sweeping tariff policy, having returned $100 billion so far. Despite studies showing consumers bore the brunt of initial tariff costs through higher prices, most companies are reinvesting the refunds rather than passing savings to shoppers. Retail executives indicated in earnings calls they plan to put the money back into their businesses. Consumers have filed class-action lawsuits against companies receiving refunds, but none have concluded. Americans have limited recourse to recover funds if companies don't voluntarily lower prices.
