The Home Depot

Introduction of residential warehouses The growing awareness of the general public and the demand for home improvement products by many home owners have made retail supply stores a popular retail industry. They started shopping at the "Family Center" early in the 1970s before warehouse stores dominated their hometown. These 30,000 sq. Ft. Stores offer cheaper prices and a wider selection of products, more than 25,000 more than local hardware stores, eliminating extra trips to sawmills.

Home Depot opened a branch office in Georgia in 1981 and opened it in Hollywood and Foot store. Fort Lauderdale. By 1984, Home Depot operated 19 stores, with sales exceeding $ 256 million. On October 31, 1984, Dallas Market Home Depot purchased Bowater Home Center from Bowater Inc. for $ 40 million. The expansion of Home Depot in the mid 1980s caused financial difficulties, revenues declined by 42% and debt increased to $ 200 million. The economic difficulties of Home Depot also resulted in a decline in stock prices. In order to suppress the problem of Home Depot, we opened ten stores in 1986 and sold 2.99 million shares at 17 dollars a share in order to help The Home Depot rebuild debt.

In April 2011, Home Depot closed the last store in Beijing and the fifth Home Depot will be closed in China in the past two years. In September 2012, Home Depot announced the closure of all the large stores in China. Home Depot holds two specialty shops in China, home decor items collection store and paint · flooring shop. As of September 16, 2012, all seven stores in China are closed. Home Depot did not immediately expand the plans of specialty stores in China. Although the company is taking a "wait" attitude towards the Chinese market, re-entry into the market is very expensive, so we do not want to withdraw completely.

Home Depot was originally a very basic store, it was operated in a large and compact warehouse.
