Orchard Supply stores coming to Florida

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — Lowe’s is expanding its Orchard Supply chain into the South Florida market. The first such store will open October 25 in Fort Lauderdale. Orchard Supply is a California-based chain of home centres owned by Lowe’s. They are much smaller than a Lowe’s big box; the Fort Lauderdale store will be about 30,000 square feet in size, with a 7,000-square-foot garden centre.
