LA HABRA, Calif., Nov. 18, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Howard\u2019s<\/a>, Southern California’s premier independent appliance retailer, announced today a record-breaking year of increased sales, expanded audience awareness, and company growth. Among the significant advances and achievements of 2020, the company has seen a 43% sales increase and a 41% boost in new customers in several desirable demographics including the culturally diverse, new homeowners, Gen X, and Millennials. Many of the company\u2019s accomplishments are a result of the initiatives new Howard\u2019s President & CEO John Riddle instituted when he took over in 2019 and the company regularly outperforms top regional appliance retailers in several market categories. <\/p>\n

\u201cWe are proud to say that in what has been a challenging year for our industry, Howard\u2019s is not just surviving but we are thriving,\u201d said Riddle. \u201cHoward\u2019s was already a well-established business when I came on board, and we worked hard to assemble a board of top advisors among the retail, consumer electronics, and logistics fields to help us put together an aggressive growth development strategy. We also added a new team of veteran marketers to our existing staff to help us build a strong online presence and grow in the digital space.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Howard\u2019s has made a strategic shift to investing in both high performing existing stores and new locations in growing areas. The first of these is the new Howard\u2019s Marina Pacifica<\/a> flagship store that opened along the famous Pacific Coast Highway in Long Beach, California, in September. Serving as a luxury brand showroom, the location is an experience center featuring \u201clive\u201d kitchens, laundry displays, a coffee lounge, a designer conference area, and space for customers, designers, and trade professionals to browse room displays, observe product innovations, learn more about the latest technologies, and enjoy the highest levels of product expertise and customer service. Some of the luxury brands that have partnered with Howard\u2019s and that display custom vignettes at the Marina Pacifica location include Monogram, Samsung, Thermador, JennAir, Dacor, and Fisher & Paykel.<\/p>\n

In addition to these successes, Howard\u2019s was recently recognized as a 2020 Retail Excellence Award winner by Dealerscope. The award is given annually to five companies based on their business performance and stature within the vendor community over the past year. Howard\u2019s has also been awarded the gold in the Best Appliance Store category for the 12th<\/sup> time in the Beachcomber\u2019s 19th<\/sup> annual Best of Long Beach awards and designated one of the top three Best Appliance Stores in the Orange County Register\u2019s Best of Orange County 2020 awards.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis year has brought changes in how we work with and support customers. We\u2019re committed to \u2018Get to Yes\u2019 with customers, which means that we do everything we can to meet customers where they are,\u201d adds Riddle. \u201cWe have implemented the technologies and services that matter to them, carefully considering where our investment dollars will make the most impact on our audiences.\u201d<\/p>\n

Howard\u2019s was also recently featured on Good Day L.A.\u2019s Tech Tuesday<\/a> segment showcasing the Samsung 4K Sero TV that pairs with users\u2019 mobile devices; the programmable LG Styler for steaming and sanitizing; Thermador\u2019s built-in automatic coffee maker; and the Monogram hearth oven\u2014today\u2019s next-generation connected pizza oven. The morning\u00a0television news and entertainment program airs on\u00a0KTTV\u00a0(channel 11) Los Angeles, in the\u00a0second-largest TV market\u00a0in the United States.<\/p>\n

With the company commemorating its 75th<\/sup> anniversary next year, the Howard\u2019s team continues to both build on its legacy of customer service and to grow into a future of innovation and technological development. The company looks forward to continuing to add new stores in new locations, developing new luxury partnerships, and seeking out the greatest advancements in the smart appliance and retail industry.<\/p>\n
