Johnson Bros Hardware first opened in Avalon in 1957, by John and Bob Johnson. This Store went from strength to strength and moved to larger premises in 2003, at 51 Bassett St, Mona Vale, the current location. In October 2008, Johnson Bros Mitre 10 took over operation of Hardwoods Australia. In January 2009 the name was changed to JBH Timbers and Building Supplies incorporating Hardwoods Australia
. This name change reflected the increased product range that was now available. To achieve a "One Stop Shop", JBH Timber moved into the same complex as Johnson Bros Mitre 10 in Mona Vale. Having utalised all available space at Mona Vale Johnson Bros opened a new site at 1555 Pittwater rd, Narrabeen in March of 2014. Under the JBH Supplies branding. JBH Fencing and Landscape Supplies increases the range of Johnson Bros' offering in fencing and landscaping materials and helps to facilitate the growing supplies requirements to the Hunter, Central Coast, South Coast and Greater Sydney regions
Whilst John and Bob still have an interest in Johnson Bros Mitre 10, the day to day running is left to Johns sons and daughters. John has 5 sons, 3 daughters, 1 son-in-law and 2 daughters-in-law and a constantly growing number of grandchildren involved in the stores, making it a true Family business.
