Leroy Merlin group, a prosperous worldwide company.
" With a turnover of 6.5 thousand million € (more than 17%), with the opening of 24 new stores and thanks to all those worldwide who make up Leroy Merlin Group, 2005 will have been an excellent year.
Our highly original multi-format diversification strategy (large sized stores, small and medium sized stores, discount stores and franchise, particularly Weldom in the middle of 2004) is one of the keys to our success. If our results are better than those of our competitors, it is also because we keep taking a fresh look at our know-how, because we remain vigilant about the arbitration of our resources and investments, because we advocate genuine values of exchange and sharing, because we listen to our customers in order to bring them increased satisfaction...
If we are a properous company it is primarily because we are consistent and a “human” company.
"
Damien Deleplanque, Chief Executive Officer Leroy Merlin Group.
