On November 1, 2022, JEDCO presented a check of $250,000 to Braly Builder Supply during a celebration for the completion of Bralys Ace Hardware's renovation and expansion project in downtown Jacksonville. The project, supported by JEDCO’s Downtown Redevelopment Grant and significant investment from Bralys, transformed the former Capital One building into a retail space.

Bralys Ace Hardware has been a family-owned business in East Texas for over 90 years. The recent expansion increased their store's footprint by approximately 2,500 square feet. The newly renovated store is now open seven days a week, providing a local hardware and home improvement destination for residents, reducing the need for trips to Tyler for supplies.
