Celebrating 50 Years of Building, Serving & Growing with Aynor
Some businesses sell supplies. Others become part of the foundation of a community.
This year, Aynor Building Supply, Inc. is celebrating 50 years in business — five decades of serving Aynor, supporting local projects, and carrying on a family tradition that began in 1976.
A Family Legacy Built Together
Aynor Building Supply was founded in 1976 by the late Kennith “Kenny” Gardner Johnson and Mrs. Patsy R. Johnson. Together, they built more than a business — they created a family legacy that would become a familiar and trusted part of the Aynor community.
With the recent passing of Mrs. Patsy, this 50th anniversary carries even more meaning. It’s an opportunity to celebrate not only an incredible business milestone, but also the two people who started it all and the legacy they leave behind.
Today, their sons Timmy Johnson and Craig Johnson, along with their wives Regina and Debbie, continue what Kenny and Patsy began.
Fifty years later, it’s still local. Still family-owned. And still serving Aynor.
More Than Lumber & Hardware
Located at 737 Elm Street, Aynor Building Supply is an independently owned and operated Ace Hardware dealer, combining the personal service of a hometown business with access to the products and resources of the Ace network.

🔧 Hardware & household tools
🌱 Lawn & garden supplies
🏡 Garden flags
🐦 Handmade birdhouses

…and plenty more.
Whether you’re a contractor grabbing supplies for the jobsite, a homeowner tackling a weekend project, or someone who walked in for one thing and somehow left with five — Aynor Building Supply has been helping our community get it done for 50 years.
50 Years Is Worth Celebrating
A lot can change in half a century, but there’s something special about a hometown business that continues from one generation to the next.
1976 → 2026
That’s 50 years of opening the doors.
50 years of serving customers.
50 years of family.
And 50 years of being part of Aynor.
The Aynor Area Chamber of Commerce is proud to celebrate this milestone with Chamber member Aynor Building Supply and recognize the Johnson family for continuing the legacy Kenny and Patsy started together 50 years ago.
Congratulations, Aynor Building Supply, on 50 years! Here’s to the family, the legacy, and everything still left to build.
