Wells Lamont

Wells Lamont Market Overview

According to Grips Intelligence in-store data tracked across Lowe's, Ace Hardware, Menards, and Amazon from January 1 to August 31, 2026, Wells Lamont — an autonomous subsidiary of Marmon Holdings, itself owned by Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRK.B) — shows a notably balanced retail footprint rather than reliance on a single account. Lowe's leads with 34.4% of year-to-date revenue, but Ace Hardware sits almost level at 33.4%, followed by Menards at 16.9% and Amazon at 15.3%. That near-even split between the top two channels is unusual and gives the brand a diversified base, though it also means shelf decisions at either retailer carry outsized weight. Momentum has softened over the June–August window, with revenue down 4.6% month over month and 15.8% across the period. Pricing has moved the other way, with the average selling price rising 3.6% to $12.59 in the latest month against a year-to-date average of $11.87, suggesting mix or list-price gains are partially offsetting softer unit demand.
