Reliable OHD is a division of Allmar Inc. which was founded in 1957 in Winnipeg by Henry W. Redekopp who named the company after his two eldest children Albert and Margaret. Henry had emigrated to Canada in 1924 from the Ukraine. He was eleven years old and the youngest of six children. After graduating from high school in Winkler, Manitoba he settled in northeast Winnipeg where he purchased a small feed and grocery store in 1939 called the Roadside Store.
This small store with two employees eventually grew into a large general store and building material center called Redekopp Lumber and Supply. When selling a complete house package some products were difficult for customers to secure such as doors, windows and roofing, so Henry started expanding the product offering and selling these building products as well.
Traction with these product lines eventually led to the founding of Allmar as a wholesale distributor selling to lumberyards throughout Manitoba. In the early 60’s Allmar took on the architectural hardware product line and began supplying commercial projects such as schools and hospitals. Architectural hardware became the core of Allmar’s business, along with miscellaneous specialties products and doors and frames. Operations expanded to include branches across western Canada.
In February of 2024, Allmar was purchased from Edwin and Arthur Redekopp by the management team, including Ron Jonkman, CEO, Brad Miles, CSO, Paul Porco, CFO, Martin Willett, COO and Elise Mayberry, VP of Marketing. Edwin Redekopp accepted an invitation to reinvest alongside the management team as a partner, nurturing his passion for Allmar and confidence in the management team’s continued success.. Allmar continues to grow and innovate in order to deliver the latest in high quality products and services to its valued customers.
