This page was created specifically for reference purposes for Orchard Supply Hardware. The intent of the page is simply informational and more content including history, sales and other significance of OSH in the state of California will be added to this page. The company itself is similar to Ace Hardware, Lowe's and The Home Depot and this page will help new vendors of OSH including others gain an insight on how the company began.
I work for Orchard Supply Hardware as the Marketing Manager and can be reached to verify that the content is true and accurate. Again this page is not meant to be an advertisement or branding for the company but simply a reference for those interested in gaining insight.

Expansion and new sections
editSo I've recently re-written the lead and other parts plus added sections on the Calendars and the company's endurance while its market transformed (Silicon Valley, et. al.). I'd still like to add info about the current company structure, officers, market capitalization, and such so that its more in line with other company articles. --Scalhotrod - Just your average banjo playing, drag racing, cowboy...

in popular culture
editIf somebody adds an "in popular culture" section or similar, the Diesel Queens song would fit in it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d3eiy3Gc_rg . --Richlv (talk) 22:24, 7 January 2019 (UTC)
Here today, gone tomorrow
editSome useless trivia... Last year a new store opened in Hollywood. It only lasted a few months before they got the news the company had gone bankrupt. It was probably the last OSH to open and also the shortest lived. The Yelp listing reflects how ephemeral the store was. It was almost like a pop-up. 144.178.0.140 (talk) 18:08, 12 May 2019 (UTC) Darwin
Outdoor supply hardware
editThe OSH dot com website has been taken over by "outdoor supply hardware". The chain has 11 stores, but I have not confirmed they are rejuvenated old Orchard Supply Hardware stores. The bankruptcy was before Lowes took over.107.198.87.78 (talk) 06:03, 23 October 2020 (UTC)
