Our Heritage Has Shaped Us
Hermann and Gerda Hokema first opened in 1964. Believe it or not that is over 50 years ago. Many of you remember our first location on Yuba street in downtown Redding. In1976 we purchased our current location and opened a store front. Two years later in 1978 we closed the downtown location and moved our entire operation to Bechelli Ln. Over the years we have remodeled the facility several times and finally took over the entire building in 2002.It's our passion for people that drives us.
We live here just like you, we care for our community, just like you. We can help you care for your own home with our knowledge and expertise and help you find the perfect vacuum or sewing machine for your specific need.
We want to be known for our excellence.
We focus on product with exclusive lines, and people whom we continuously train on these superior products. To convey the features and benefits of the products to you we are committed to constant promotions.
Besides the obvious “it is a living,” serving you is our way of giving back to the community. Many of you have invested your heart and soul into our lives. We choose the thank you by serving others and paying it forward.
