Imagine all that has happened since 1849: the automobile, world wars, lunar landings, the Internet and DNA sequencing. Through it all, Hubbard-Hall has developed and prospered, side by side with our customers and suppliers.
Starting as Dr. Gideon Platt's corner drugstore, selling headache powders to customers who could reach him on foot or by horse and buggy, Hubbard-Hall today markets a wide range of industrial and specialty chemicals to customers as far away as China.
How did a tiny retailer survive over 150 years to become one of the country's pre-eminent independent chemical distributors and manufacturer of specialty products? The answer lies in Hubbard-Hall's adherence to certain fundamentals of business:
Continually improve the products and services we offer
Anticipate and adapt to market changes
Develop mutually beneficial relationships with customers, suppliers, employees and the communities in which we operate
Be responsible in the storage, transportation and stewardship of the
chemical products we supply
A strong commitment to these ideals and to the values of a family owned & operated business have forged Hubbard-Hall's past and will direct the course for the future.
