Leroy Merlin exceeds 80 stores in Russia

In late July, Leroy Merlin opened its 79th and 80th stores in Russia.

The 79th store opened on 26th July, in Cherepovets, northwest Russia.  The 80th branch (pictured) opened on 27th July in Domodedovo, near Moscow.

Both branches are Leroy Merlin's new, large-format DIY megastores which also feature garden centres.

Since these openings, Adeo now has opened a further two Leroy Merlin stores, bringing the total to 82 in 43 Russian cities.

Adeo is aiming for 100 branches in the region by the end of 2018 and has plans to open in:

Belgorod, Bryansk, Ivanovo, Yoshkar-Ola, Kaliningrad, Kaluga, Lipetsk, Orel, Smolensk, Stary Oksol, Surgut, Tambov, Tomsk, Ulan-Ude, Vladiavkaz and Widnoe.
