Smardan Supply opened on March 1st 1930 in the midst of the Great Depression by brothers Bill and Sam Smardan. They had previously worked for Silvers Pipe & Supply. Smardan's first location was in a defunct automobile garage in Los Angeles. The brother's first employee was a driver named Bill Weelo who took part of his wages by sleeping at Bill Smardan's house. In 1948 the manager of the Grabler Mallable Co. Charlie Hatcher, wanted to start a business in Santa Barbara, with the Smardan brothers as backers and partners. And the Smardan- Hatcher Co. was opened. Unfortunately Charlie died in 1951 and the Smardan Brothers took it over. In 1953, Smardan-Hatcher Salinas was opened but because of a lack of business back then it had to close in 1955.
