    “We’ve been looking to open a location in Ahoskie for a number of years so that we can provide the tools and equipment at tremendous values to the community,” said Trey Feiler, Senior Vice President, Real Estate and Construction for Harbor Freight Tools. “In addition to finding a great location, we were attracted by the availability of great Associates in the Ahoskie area, and we look forward to having them join the Harbor Freight team.”

    The store is expected to bring between 25 and 30 new jobs to the community, including Sales and Logistic Supervisors, Senior Associates, Sales Associates and seasonal opportunities as well.

    Harbor Freight Tools offers a competitive starting rate along with a best-in-class retail benefits package that includes robust health coverage and Thanksgiving and Christmas off.
