Erewhon is bringing their 11th location to Glendale! Moving into a 24,000 SF building at a cost of $12.4 million, Erewhon’s development team collaborated closely with the Economic Development Business Concierge and Building & Safety teams during the site selection process. They were drawn to the former Virgil's Hardware Home Center, located at 520 N. Glendale Avenue, for its historic roots and strategic position in the San Fernando Valley.
Founded in 1968, Erewhon has grown into a marquee luxury brand and a hub for healthy groceries, meals, and tonics. They exclusively curate products that support health and wellness, providing its customers with organic, biodynamic, regenerative, and gluten-free alternatives.
Erewhon plans to utilize 18,000 SF and lease the additional space to complementary tenants. The development team plans to remodel the facade of the building, upgrade its utilities, and beautify the surrounding area with landscaping and outdoor seating. It will also incorporate architectural nods to the history of Glendale and seek out creative ways to honor the neighborhood’s spirit in the renovation.
