Our Company |
When it was founded in 1978 by Bernie Marcus and Arthur Blank, The Home Depot
began changing consumers’ perspectives about how they could care for and
improve their homes. The Company created the “do-it-yourself” concept,
spawning an entire industry that now spans the globe.
Today, The Home Depot® is the world's largest home improvement specialty
retailer, with 2242 retail stores in the United States (including Puerto Rico and
the U.S. Virgin Islands), Canada, Mexico and China. The Home Depot’s stock is
traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: HD) and is included in the Dow
Jones industrial average and Standard & Poor's 500 index.
