Leroy Merlin Home Improvement and DIY Supplies

Leroy Merlin is a global leader in the home improvement and DIY industry. Founded in France in 1923 by Adolphe Leroy and Rose Merlin, the brand initially specialized in selling surplus American military supplies. It transitioned into a hardware and construction material retailer and was eventually acquired by the Mulliez Family, who integrated it into the ADEO Group.

Today, Leroy Merlin operates as a retail brand rather than a manufacturer of a single product. Its extensive inventory consists of goods manufactured across multiple countries, including China, France, Poland, and Vietnam, often sold under its own private labels like Dexter, Lexman, or Sterwins. As of 2026, the brand continues to expand its footprint as part of ADEO, maintaining a dominant presence in Europe, Brazil, and South Africa.
