Make your travel gear a conversation starter with a nod to Builders Square. Founded as Home Centers of America in 1983, the company opened its first Home Pro Warehouse in San Antonio before taking the Builders Square name in 1984. The chain grew alongside the do-it-yourself retail boom, later adding its larger Builders Square II format. This luggage tag connects practical travel use with a brand story that moved from physical home centers to an online shopping identity, appealing to travelers who collect pieces of retail history.
Builders Square began as Home Centers of America, founded on February 16, 1983, by home-center executive Frank Denny. Its first Home Pro Warehouse opened in a former Woolco store in San Antonio, Texas, on May 28, 1983. Kmart acquired the company in June 1984 for $90 million, and the business and stores took the Builders Square name. The first stores under that name opened in the Chicago area on October 18, 1984; the original nine stores were converted on January 1, 1985. The chain later developed a larger Builders Square II format, first opened in Sunrise, Florida, on July 8, 1992. By 1997 it operated 162 stores. That year, Kmart and Leonard Green & Partners agreed to combine Builders Square with Hechinger. Hechinger entered Chapter 11 bankruptcy in June 1999 and Chapter 7 liquidation that September. Remaining Builders Square stores were converted to the Home Quarters brand, while some locations were sold to The Home Depot. Home Decor Products revived the name in 2006 for an online home-and-garden comparison-shopping site. After Home Decor Products filed for bankruptcy in April 2009, former executives acquired its assets through HomeClick LLC and dropped the Builders Square brand and website.
