Spring's Arrival Makes Howard Brothers' Opening Timely

The outdoor power equipment dealer opened its fourth location in south Forsyth County to serve commercial and residential customers.

Does your yard need some work? With the arrival of spring, do you need to start mowing the lawn? Howard Brothers, an outdoor power equipment dealer in metro Atlanta, has opened their fourth location to serve the south Forsyth, Alpharetta and Milton area.

The new location is at 5860 Gateway Drive (just north of the intersection of McFarland Road and Hwy 9). The store has been open since Feb. 1, and now it's time for a grand opening on March 22 and 23.

“We are very excited about the new location,” says owner Doug Howard in a release from the company. “We believe that folks are researching their lawn equipment needs more than ever. We provide our customers with the best products and have the best people who know those products. You won’t walk into a big box store and get the level of service that you get at one of our stores.”
