About C-A-L Ranch Stores

C-A-L Ranch Stores was founded in 1959 in Idaho Falls, ID, by Clinton, Allen, and L. Wayne Murphy. The family used their initials “C-A-L” to create their brand. Our first store, located in Idaho Falls, ID, was called C-A-L Ranch & Farm Supply, with less than 3,000 square feet, primarily selling tillage tools and hardware. Over 60+ years, C-A-L Ranch Stores has expanded from a single store to a regional retailer with multiple locations in Idaho, Utah, Nevada, and Arizona. Though no longer owned by the Murphy family, it remains privately held with the same mission and values.
