Hardwick's

Jon Crane, long time customer, recently re-edited video and posted it on Y-T a 11 minute piece on Hardwick’s showing the result of the store’s intense improvement of its last 45 years. The tool room had mostly just tables & 4 showcases which developed into 30 showcases and pegboard to the ceiling. Father was purchasing from 25 companies in 1975. Bill & I increased that in 20 years later to 150, not only from the US but also importing from Europe and Japan. A supporting role was from Lloyd Anderson from the mid 80’s onward who was our store manager and a great help.
