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 founders' vision of one-stop shopping for the do-it-yourselfer came to fruition when they opened the first two Home Depot stores on June 22, 1979, in Atlanta, Georgia. The first stores, at around 60,000 square feet each, were cavernous warehouses that dwarfed the competition and stocked 25,000 products, much more than the average hardware store at that time.
Today, The Home Depot is the world's largest home improvement retailer with approximately 475,000 orange-blooded associates and more than 2,300 stores in the U.S., Canada and Mexico. The typical store today averages 105,000 square feet of indoor retail space, interconnected with an e-commerce business that offers more than one million products for the DIY customer, professional contractors, and the industry's largest installation business for the Do-It-For-Me customer.
REVIEWS
- I used to like home Depot but the staff is not very helpful these days. They tend to run away if you look like you need help
- Very low stock. Employees don't want to do there jobs anymore. No help. Attitudes left and right from the management right down. It's like a chore and a bother when you ask for help. For the very, very few that try and help. Thank you very much
- Lo recomiendo, tiene todo para decoración, remodelación, construcción y más en un solo lugar.
- Please upgrade Miami’s customer service!! People working there need to learn how to talk to customers, please be resrpectful to your customers and care!

- Variedad en todas las ramas
- Disappointing Experience
Went to this location today hoping to find some plants and shrubs for my garden. Unfortunately, the whole experience was appalling. The garden area was understaffed, no employees around to help me identify certain plants or answer questions. Many items were unlabeled or misplaced, making it difficult to find what I needed. When I finally went to pay, an item rang up at the wrong price. It took quite some time to get a manager to resolve the issue, which added to my frustration. Although they ultimately honored the correct price as listed on their website, it was a hassle to get it sorted. This Home Depot seemed to have a severe lack of staff in all departments, making it hard to find assistance. While I understand this might be a broader issue, this particular store left me with a very negative impression
- customers services in ok the only thing i don[t like about this home depot is that i have to park far away from my car because is always full !!! always i hate waiting in line!

- I stopped in today at this HD to place a special order. And wula done now wait until it comes in
- It was an in and out situation. That made my trip less longer. This was a great experience for me.
- On February 12, 2023 I purchased 10 large bags of soil. I guess it seemed like I was struggling because a kind beautiful lady name Katrina offered her assistance. Katrina is a Lot Associate that went above and beyond my expectations. Katrina grabbed some large bags to put behind my truck so that it wouldn't get dirty. She helped me load the heavy bags of soil. I know she didn't realize I was 5 months pregnant and my hormones was all over the place. I appreciate the gesture. A little kindness goes a long way. Thank you sister May God Bless you !
- This is my "go-to' store. They have nearly everything I need and even in the busiest time, the line moves quickly
