Home Depot

Home Depot

When The Home Depot was founded in 1978, Bernie Marcus and Arthur Blank had no idea how revolutionary this new “hardware store” would be for home improvement and the retail industry.

Today, we’re proud to be the world’s largest home improvement retailer. In more than 2,300 stores across North America, we aspire to excel in service – to our customers, associates, communities and shareholders. That’s what leadership means to us. That's The Home Depot difference.
OUR VALUES

Our culture and success are built on an unwavering loyalty to eight guiding principles.
INVERTED PYRAMID

We live by a simple premise by our founders: Put customers and associates first, and the rest will take care of itself.
THREE-LEGGED STOOL

Our three-legged stool sets a strategic framework that drives lasting customer and shareholder value.
