Gold Beach Lumber, Gold Beach, Or., has agreed to purchase the business assets and real estate of Dazey’s Hubbards, Medford, Or., from Dazey’s Supply, Garberville, Ca.

Both parties hope to close the deal by the end of the year. 

The Medford location—the oldest hardware store in Oregon, founded in 1884—had been known as Hubbard’s Hardware until it was acquired eight years ago by Dazey’s Supply. Dazey’s Hubbards specializes in paint, hardware, garden, farm & ranch, electrical, plumbing, irrigation, outdoor power equipment, and lumber.

The move marks Gold Beach Lumber’s third acquisition this year and will bring the company to 10 locations across Oregon.

The expansion will give Gold Beach Lumber a stronger presence in southern Oregon and build on the company’s long history of serving both contractors and homeowners across the region. Dazey’s Hubbards and Gold Beach Lumber will continue normal operations until the sale is completed in December.

“We appreciate the chance to enter the Medford market,” said Ryan Ringer, president of Gold Beach Lumber. “The Hubbards location is a strong store with a solid team. We look forward to adding inventory right away and giving customers a broader range of products and support.”

Darren Tomasini, president of Dazey’s, said, “We want to thank the Rogue Valley community for its support over the years. We are glad to be working with a company like Gold Beach Lumber with such a long and steady track record in Oregon.”

Gold Beach Lumber is a family-owned hardware and lumber company founded in 1955 on the Oregon coast. From a single location in Gold Beach, the company has grown into a group of stores serving communities from the coast to the Willamette Valley. Gold Beach Lumber operates under several brands, including Gold Beach Lumber, Cascade Home Center, and Hennick’s Home Center. The company focuses on providing building materials, tools, home goods, and customer-focused service to both homeowners and the professional trades.

Both Gold Beach and Dazey’s Hubbards are Do it Best-affiliated dealers.
