PINNACLE PERFORMANCE RETAILING — Webber Ace Hardware owner Mark Robinson holds the Dover-Foxcroft store’s plaque for attaining the Pinnacle Performance Retailing designation from the Ace Hardware Corporation.

For more than 90 years, Ace Hardware has been serving its neighbors with helpful service and quality products. With more than 4,800 stores in more than 60 countries, the team at Webber Ace Hardware is one of only a few hundred Ace retailers to achieve Pinnacle status. To achieve Pinnacle Performance Retailing, the team at Webber Ace Hardware successfully completed a number of key performance drivers that will help them provide a better overall shopping experience in their local community.

One example of a proven performance driver is “Helpful Certification,” the foundational element of Ace’s “Certified Ace Helpful” retail training curriculum. To become certified, Ace Hardware associates complete courses such as Helpful 101 and 201 and the store conducts a week-long team-based certification event.

“For a store to achieve Pinnacle Performance Retailing is an outstanding accomplishment,” said Dan Miller, vice president, retail operations and new business, Ace Hardware Corporation. “We’re pleased to recognize Webber Ace Hardware and its associates for their outstanding achievements, and proud to say they’re a part of the Ace family.”
