Howard Brothers

The story of Howard Brothers begins in 1955 when Edwin Howard purchased a small grocery store in Doraville, which was started by his in-laws in 1925.Then, in 1972 he branched next door and established Howard's True Value Hardware. The second hardware store opened in Duluth, GA in 1987 and now also houses the Outdoor Power Equipment Headquarters. The Oakwood Store in Hall County was purchased in April 1999, building in 1996. The Alpharetta Store had its grand opening in March 2013. We opened the Athens location in 2016.Each location serves many residential customers’ hardware needs in an environment that has all the tools and power equipment you're looking for, with the same feel of a traditional, community hardware store. We have the staff and inventory to handle big power equipment orders with ease.
