Harbor Freight Tools, commonly referred to as Harbor Freight, is an American privately held tool and equipment retailer, headquartered in Calabasas, California. It operates a chain of retail stores, as well as an e-commerce business.

Harbor Freight buys tools direct from the manufacturer, so that means you save because they cut out the middle man. Often times Harbor Freight's tools come from the exact factory that other brands buy their tools from – which means quality is just as good as the competition.

We work directly with the factories–the same factories that produce the tools for many of our competitors–and bypass the middleman so we don't have to pay them an additional markup. We then pass those savings on to our customers in the form of lower prices. High quality, lower prices–that's value.
