History
Established in 1954.
Schemper’s Ace Hardware has been a family business since its inception in 1954, when brothers John and Leonard Schemper purchased Den Dulk Hardware. In 1969, John sold his interests in the business to Leonard, but he continued to work for him on a part time basis. On January 1, 1976, Leonard sold the company and the property to his son Ward who then began to run the business. In 1977, Schemper’s joined Ace Hardware.
In 1989, Ward and Bud Schemper, grandson of cofounder John, purchased what was the Mar Val Grocery Store located at 333 W Main Street. In 2005 Schemper’s moved their Ripon store to the current location in the Main Street Plaza Center at the corner of Wilma and Main Street in Ripon. This new facility allowed them to almost double their space and inventory offering to the community.
Please stop by our store and experience the wide variety and products we offer, and see what excellence in customer service really means.
