Foxborough Aubuchon Hardware Out of Business

Originally published on July 24, 2016.

FOXBORUGH, MA – After over six decades in Foxborough, Aubuchon Hardware has permanently closed.

The hardware store located at the center of town closed for the last time Friday, with no notification or reason given to the public.

"With much regret, we announce the closing of this store location. For the past 65 years it has been our pleasure to serve the hardware needs of the town of Foxborough and its surrounding communities. If you need assistance regarding you account, recent purchase, or future needs, our new Franklin store located at Horace Mann Plaza will gladly take care of your needs," a sign on the front door read.

The closing leaves another empty building in an area of Foxborough that town officials have been trying to revitalize. Efforts to redevelop the former fire station located on the other side of the common have been unsuccessful.

According to the Foxborough Assessor' database, the property is owned by Aubuchon and has an accessed value of $470,000.
