- Maggie Hardy is the owner and CEO of 84 Lumber, one of the largest privately-owned building materials suppliers in the U.S.
- Hardy's father, Joe Hardy, founded the company in 1956 in the rural town of Eighty Four, Pennsylvania.
- She took control of the business in 1992, when she was just 26 years old. It topped $1 billion in sales the following year.
- Today 84 Lumber operates nearly 310 stores in 35 states and generates more than $6 billion in revenue.
- She also owns the Nemacolin resort in rural Pennsylvania, which was partially modeled after the Ritz in Paris, plus vintage airplanes and a piece of the Berlin Wall.
- 84 Lumber derives its name from the town of Eighty Four, Pennsylvania, located 20 miles south of Pittsburgh, where its headquarters and first store are located.
- Hardy's father didn't put on air-conditioning or heat in his stores and once bought a cow to chew the grass instead of hiring a kid to mow the lawn.
