1929–1930
Founding mark
The earliest recorded Ace Hardware mark, used shortly after the cooperative was founded in 1924 by a group of Chicago-area hardware dealers. Simple hand-lettered styling reflected the independent retailer roots of the co-op in its first decade.

1931–1950
Early typeface
A more settled wordmark adopted through the early 1930s and carried into the postwar years. The design stabilized as Ace expanded its cooperative membership across the Midwest, giving the brand a consistent print identity for store signage and catalogs.

1950–1964
Mid-century mark
A redesigned mark introduced as the postwar building boom drove growth in home improvement retail. The updated letterforms reflect the cleaner, more geometric type styles common in American commercial design during the 1950s.

1968–1987
Red wordmark
A bold red wordmark that anchored Ace's identity through nearly two decades of rapid franchise expansion. The high-contrast, block letterforms made the mark legible at storefront scale and helped unify the appearance of independently owned dealer locations across the country.
1987–2002
Oval badge
Introduced on May 6, 1987, this logo added a red oval enclosure around the wordmark, giving the brand a more structured badge format suited to both signage and packaging. The design ran for fifteen years alongside the co-op's national advertising campaigns.
2002–present · current
Current mark
The current Ace logo, adopted in 2002, refines the oval badge into a cleaner, bolder form with updated typography. It has appeared alongside the tagline 'The Helpful Place' and was used in a centennial variant in 2024 marking the co-op's 100th anniversary.
