Other Kow Hock branches
Kow Hock’s store locator lists several branches in the Johor Bahru area. Several of them, including this one, are run by separate operating companies under the Kow Hock name. Other branches with pages here are Taman Johor Jaya, Taman Bukit Indah, Taman Nusantara and Permas Jaya. The Senai branch, run by Airgas Hardware & Machinery, has a smaller electrical range: a rack of PVC wiring boxes, conduit and trunking. The store locator gives the Johor Jaya branch the same phone number as this one, 011-111 6369, and part of a similar “…ung Teng Hardware Enterprise” name shows on its awning, so the two branches may share an operator; we found no source that confirms it.
