Square One Goods Co. was a stationery store and gift shop featuring locally-made goods opened by Daxko executive Kate Hardy in August 2018 at Founders Station in downtown Birmingham.

Hardy started the business as a pop-up shop at the Woodlawn Street Market in 2017, and occupied a small storefront in the Alabama Theatre building that December.

The 500 square-foot shop at Founders Station offered jewelry, artwork, candles, t-shirts and home and fashion accessories in addition to its large selection of holiday and note cards. Space in the shop was made available on a consignment basis to local makers who had participated in Create Birmingham's "CO.STARTERS" program.

Hardy's Boykin spaniel "Murphy Brown" worked at the shop as its mascot.
