It’s been almost four years since the local Stihl Shop opened in Howick.
Family-owned and -operated by Garth and Tessa, the shop has become a favourite for the local community for anything to do with outdoor garden equipment, service and repairs, key cutting, BBQs, Wet & Forget and most recently a Tool Hire shop.
While it’s been a difficult four years for most businesses, opening through Covid and then into a global recession, the support of the local community, businesses, clubs and schools have kept the doors open and grown the business into a regular for anyone needing outdoor garden equipment tools or service and repairs.
Garth and Tessa are extremely grateful for the local support and thank all their loyal and local customers for giving them a go.
“Starting from scratch was challenging but the support from Stihl and the locals are the reason we can provide a global brand and service in a local community,” says Garth, the owner-operator.
Garth and Tessa have branched out into BBQs, offering brands like Ziggy, Firehawk and Beefmaster.
They’re becoming a Wet & Forget stockist, continued the key cutting from Spillers Hammer Hardware, are stockists of Ecomist and most recently started a Hire shop.
So if there’s anything you need for your outdoor garden or business needs, call into Stihl Shop Howick because Garth and his friendly team will help you out.
