Nation’s Best acquires Burns Do it Center

Continuing its rapid growth, Nation’s Best has acquired Burns Do it Center in Clovis, New Mexico, bringing its total location count to 64, and its second in the State.
“Burns Do it Center is known for its friendly and knowledgeable customer service, catering to both DIY enthusiasts and professional contractors,” says Tina Green, Regional Vice President of Operations at Nation’s Best. “This beautiful, 30,000-sq.-ft. store boasts a diverse product mix with broad appeal, as well as High Plains, an on-site gun shop. We couldn’t be happier to welcome them to the Nation’s Best family.”
Originally founded in 1888, Burns Do it Center is a one-stop shop serving a community of 40,000 people. Known as “so much more than a hardware store,” their extensive plumbing department has experts ready to help. With a wide array of products across multiple categories, they’re able to assist customers with any type of project. Their design center features top flooring brands and a wide selection of cabinetry to complete a bath or kitchen remodel.
“When it comes to a culture fit, the Burns family and the Burns Do it Center staff are directly aligned with the Nation’s Best philosophy of ‘Amaze, Every Time.’ The store’s staff gives each of their customers an amazing customer experience, along with giving their associates just as much attention and dedication to their growth and success. We are confident our partnership with Burns Do It Center will carry this commitment forward,” added Chris Miller, CEO of Nation’s Best.
James Burns, the current owner and an industry veteran, will stay on, along with the dedicated teams at  Burns Do it Center and High Plains gun shop staff. As part of Nation’s Best strategy, Burns Do it Center and High Plains will maintain operations under their existing names and their teams will continue overseeing operations alongside Nation’s Best, providing the strategic and financial support necessary to drive optimal growth and profitability. Nation’s Best will also lease back the real estate from Mr. Burns, an approach they have found favorable to both parties.
