 Harbor Freight Press Release:

Harbor Freight Tools, the nation’s largest discount tool retailer, announced the opening of their newest store located at 6020 Lankershim Boulevard in North Hollywood.

 "We're thrilled to open the 42^nd Harbor Freight Tools store in the state of California, and proud to be a member of the North Hollywood community,” said Eric Smidt, President of Harbor Freight Tools. “Our customers can always count on finding the largest selection of quality tools at ridiculously low prices, and know they will always get the best value for their money. In today's cost-conscious times, Harbor Freight offers a necessary alternative to other ‘big box’ retailers that offer comparably featured products at inflated big-brand prices.”

On Thursday, December 15, doors opened at 8:00 a.m. for Harbor Freight North Hollywood’s special Grand Opening Sale, with select merchandise discounted as much as 80%.  At 11:00 a.m., a ribbon-cutting ceremony hosted by the Universal City North Hollywood Chamber of Commerce was immediately followed by a donation to Rebuilding Together of Greater Los Angeles.

 “The Universal City North Hollywood Chamber of Commerce welcomes Harbor Freight Tools to the local business community,” said Vic Viereck, President of Universal City North Hollywood Chamber of Commerce. “We are excited the community will now have a great source to purchase the
tools needed to improve the community from the ground up and look forward to doing business with them.”

Harbor Freight’s donation to Rebuilding Together of Greater Los Angeles will be used immediately on projects throughout Los Angeles County. With the generosity of sponsors like Harbor Freight Tools, Rebuilding Together of Greater Los Angeles hopes to complete another project in the coming months for a veteran widow including replacing her entire roof and repairing water damage inside the home. Deanna Johnson, Executive Director of Rebuilding Together of Greater Los Angeles said, "On behalf of Rebuilding Together Greater Los Angeles, our volunteers, and our homeowners, I would like to thank Harbor Freight Tools for their generosity in donating supplies that will be used in continuing our mission of a safe and healthy home for every person.”
