Nelson Agri-Center of Viroqua and Nelson True Value of Prairie du Chien shared receiving a prestigious award from the National Hardware Association.

The sister stores received the Home Channel News Innovative Retailer of the Year Award, which was announced in Las Vegas, Nev., recently.

Business owners Dan Kanis and Mark Brueggen accepted the award, which was bestowed upon only one retailer out of approximately 25,000 nationwide, Kanis said.

“It’s our employees who really won this award,” Kanis said. “The award takes in consideration a lot of the things we do as a retailer for our customers.”

The award recipient was selected by a committee that weighed applications from all different retail chains. Each chain, such as True Value, first had to select the stores it wished to nominate for the award.

“We’re very honored to be chosen for this,” Kanis said. “Home Channel News is a publication that every retailer of hardware is aware of.”

Nelson Agri-Center and Nelson True Value will be recognized in an upcoming edition of Home Channel News for the award.
