For nearly 30 years, Bar Code Depot has been known as the team that delivers reliable barcode hardware, repairs, labeling solutions, and mobile computing support. But over time, something incredible happened — our services expanded far beyond what our original name could capture.
Today, we provide full warehouse technology solutions: automation, robotics, staging and provisioning, advanced software, technical services, and a deep ecosystem of trusted partners. We’ve grown into something bigger, stronger, and more capable than ever before.
And now, we’re excited to share the next step in that evolution:
Introducing Hardesty Technologies.
This rebrand represents not only who we are today, but where we’re going — a company built on innovation, reliability, values and the drive to make warehouse operations simpler, faster, and more efficient.
Why the Name Change?
When Bar Code Depot was founded in 1996, the primary focus was exactly what the name implied: barcode equipment and labeling solutions. But as our clients’ needs evolved, we evolved with them.
Our team now delivers solutions across every corner of warehouse and supply chain operations, including:
Mobile computers, scanners, and printers
RFID and smart labeling technology
Warehouse automation & workflow optimization
AMRs and robotics through partners like Nexus AMR
Staging, provisioning, and configuration services
VMI and full asset management solutions
Software partnerships with SnapFulfil and others
Rapid repairs, emergency support, and on-site services
We became more than a barcode supplier — we became a true technology partner.
The name Hardesty Technologies reflects our full commitment to innovation while honoring our legacy under the Hardesty family leadership.
What’s Staying the Same?
Almost everything that matters.
Whether you’ve worked with us for decades or you’re just getting to know our team, here’s what remains unchanged:
Same ownership (Cliff Hardesty)
- Same Values
Same team providing hands-on support
Same customer-first philosophy
Same fast, reliable emergency service
Same dedication to solving real warehouse challenges
Our values aren’t changing — our capabilities are simply expanding.
What Will Look Different?
Over the next several weeks, you’ll start to see our updated name and brand across all touchpoints:
Our website will transition to Hardesty Technologies
Our social media channels will update to the new brand
Our email signatures and visuals will reflect the new identity
New resources, tools, and educational content will roll out
You’ll see a new color palette and modern, clean design
Rest assured — you will still reach the same people, the same support team, and the same trusted service.
A Stronger Brand Means Stronger Support for You
This change is about positioning our company for the future.
Warehouse operations are advancing faster than ever. Automation is growing. Robotics are becoming standard. Mobility workflows are more mission-critical than they’ve ever been. And supply chains need partners who can support all of it — quickly, and with expertise.
Hardesty Technologies reflects our readiness to lead in that future.
What You Can Expect in 2026
The rebrand is only the beginning. Here’s a sneak peek of what we’re rolling out next year:
New automation offerings
Expanded robotics partnerships
An upgraded service and repair program
More warehouse optimization tools
Larger content and training resources
Enhanced client onboarding
More co-branded solutions with Zebra, Honeywell, SnapFulfil, and other key partners
Hardesty Technologies isn’t just a new name — it signals the scale of what’s coming.
Thank You for Being Part of Our Journey
We wouldn’t be here without our loyal clients, incredible partners, and community that has supported us for over three decades.
We’re excited to enter this new chapter with you — stronger, smarter, and ready for the future of warehouse innovation.
