What Homewerks Worldwide does

Homewerks Worldwide, LLC is a U.S. home improvement hardlines supplier headquartered in Lake Bluff, Illinois, operating as a single-brand portfolio of plumbing fixtures, fittings, and related home products. The company offers 11 product categories — Fittings, Plumbing, Repair & Maintenance, Bathroom, Kitchen, Specialty Faucets & Showers, Decor, LED Mirrors, Ventilation Fans, Drain Clearing, and Strainers — plus the acquired Characters Project Kits product line. Cobra Products was added via acquisition in March 2023.

The business model is wholesale hardware sales through major U.S. retail channels. Homewerks does not sell direct to consumers; instead, products are distributed via 12+ retailers including Home Depot, Home Depot Pro, Lowe's, Walmart, Amazon, Target, Sam's Club, Ace Hardware, Menards, Tractor Supply, True Value, HD Supply, and Do it Best. Customer service is delivered by a U.S.-based team in Illinois. End customers are split between DIY homeowners (primary) and professional contractors, served through both mass-market and pro/specialty channels such as HD Supply.

The company is privately held, owned by H.I.G. Capital following a May 2021 investment, and led by founder and CEO Peter Berkman. In May 2026, Homewerks entered a multi-year strategic partnership with Datavations to integrate a Merchant Enablement Platform providing SKU-level market data, competitive insights, and real-time analytics for pricing, assortment planning, and shelf placement optimization across retail and professional channels.
