It's been a difficult year for a lot of businesses and industries so far--both here in Idaho and beyond.

Not only have we seen small, locally owned businesses close their doors for good (and it seems more that normal) in 2025, but we've also seen large chain restaurants and retail locations close down for good as well. The state of our economy has certainly been better--prices on just about everything are up and folks are holding back how they spend, compared to years' past.

Growth here in Idaho? That's one thing that hasn't slowed down--and as more and more building goes on, so too has the need for building and renovation supplies.

Take a look at Home Depot's expansion here in the Treasure Valley, below!
