Then, nobody knew that this was a venture destined to change the pace of Buildersware Industry in Kerala market.
Indian hardware Stores continued it's journey from success to victory. Gradually most of the builders and contractors started to rely on Indian Hardware Stores for their materials, as a dependable supplier. Apart from private sector, Government and Semi government organizations too were brought to their fold soon. Their main clientele included KSEB, FACT, TCC, TCM, IRE, KEL, etc . During the development of the Mattuppetty Dam, majority of the materials were supplied by Indian Hardware Stores.
During April 1992, Indian Hardware stores was shifted to a new spacious showroom at T D Road, Ernakulam. It was then that they started door delivery services which helped them to spread their reach to remote corners of Kerala and thereby cater to the needs of retailers in such remote areas.
