Great Lakes Ace Announces New Location in Cincinnati

When it opens, the new store will be the 7th location in Ohio

Great Lakes Ace announced it has signed an agreement to open a new store in Cincinnati, Ohio.

The new Great Lakes Ace will be located in the White Oak Center at the northeast corner of Cheviot and Jessup Roads, 5840 Cheviot Road. The store will feature more than 13,000 sq. ft. of retail space. Renovations to the space will begin later this year, with a soft opening tentatively planned for the first quarter of 2026.

Great Lakes Ace currently owns and operates six other locations in Ohio, including Cincinnati, Bellevue, Clyde, Celina, Fostoria, and Tiffin.

In addition to offering such services as key cutting, automotive key fob replacement, and propane tank exchange, the neighborhood hardware store will sell lawn and garden supplies, fasteners, tools, plumbing, and electrical supplies. It will also showcase several specialty departments and store-within-a-store concepts, selling such brands as:

• Stihl, Ego, and Milwaukee outdoor power equipment
• Benjamin Moore and Magnolia Home by Joanna Gaines paints
• Milwaukee, DeWalt, and Craftsman power tools
• Weber, Traeger, and Big Green Egg grills and accessories
• Scotts lawn care products
• Yeti coolers, drinkware, and accessories

“Great Lakes Ace is excited to open a new location in Cincinnati to bring our service, helpful advice, and quality products to more customers to help maintain their homes and get their projects done right,” said Joe Jeffries, president and CEO of Ace Retail Holdings (parent company of Great Lakes Ace). “Being an integral part of the community is at the heart of who we are, and we look forward to becoming a trusted resource for our neighbors in White Oak.”
