Moore-Handley, Inc. is a national distributor of hardware and building materials located at 3140 Pelham Parkway in Pelham. Its primary business is supplying independent hardware stores and building centers. Moore-Handley is the exclusive distributor of their own "Hardware House" brand

The company was founded in Birmingham in 1882. By 1910 the company had grown from a single retail store with $3000 capital to the largest hardware company in the state, with five acres of floor space in three buildings and an office and sales room located at 20th Street and Avenue A.

The company was purchased in 1981 by William Riley and other partners. Riley took the company public in 1986 and served as chairman, only becoming CEP in 1997.
