Peavey Mart is a Red Deer, Alberta-based chain of hardware and agricultural supply stores owned by Peavey Industries LP. The chain was originally founded by the Peavey Company in 1967 as National Farmway Stores, and was renamed Peavey Mart in 1974. The chain was acquired by its Canadian management in 1984.
The chain primarily operated in Western Canada. In 2016, Peavey Industries acquired TSC Canada; its locations were rebranded as Peavey Mart, expanding the chain into Ontario, and expanding its presence in Manitoba. In 2020, Peavey Industries acquired the Canadian master license to Ace Hardware from Rona, servicing its 107 locations. The chain closed all its stores in February 2025, only to be subsequently acquired by a private investment firm which reopened 4 Peavey Marts in Alberta on December 4, 2025. There are plans to reopen 7-12 more stores across Alberta and Saskatchewan by the end of 2026.
