The CHPTA is pleased to announce that the Association is now looking for nominees for the Canadian Hardware and Housewares Industry Hall of Fame.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Hall of Fame Inductions have not taken place since 2019.
However, the Association is now looking for new candidates and plans to hold a luncheon induction ceremony later this fall to welcome new members to the Hall of Fame.
