What’s Important to Howard’s Pawn and Jewelry?
Helping people is the top priority for
Howard and his staff.
Providing low-cost, quick, easy loans is one way they like to help the people in their community. These loans benefit working folks who might be in between paychecks, have an unexpected expense, or face a medical or household emergency, and they just don’t have the funds to cover them. Howard’s works hard to offer a fair loan for a collateral item and has flexible terms for repayment.
They also help people find things they’re looking for. Specialty items, one of a kind pieces, and items you might not be able to find anywhere else can all find a home with Howard’s customers. Value for the customer is another top priority for the shop.
Howard’s takes pride in paying a fair price for trade-ins and pricing sale items competitively. Customers can expect to save anywhere from 10–80% on certain items. And the staff takes great care in making sure everyone is treated right and gets what they need, whether that’s a loan or a long-sought-after item.
Howard started his business to help people and to sell items at a fair price. The shop isn’t looking to make huge margins on what they sell, but to provide much needed financial assistance to some while keeping customers coming back for the unique and reasonably priced items they have in stock. Howard started with one employee and an idea of how to make the pawn business better. The shop now has 14 employees, and business is thriving.
