A Family Business Then And Now

Rockler is a family owned business with over 37 locations across the country.

They were founded in 1954 by Norman Rockler in Minneapolis with the goal to become the woodworkers’ go-to resource for everything needed to complete a project.

They have grown into a nationwide chain of stores and have an even further reach with their mail-order catalog and internet sales.
