Leroy Merlin currently has over 2,500 employees and operates 19 stores in Romania. Apart from capital Bucharest, Leroy Merlin also has stores in the cities and towns of Suceava, Oradea, Timisoara, Cluj-Napoca, Sibiu, Constanta, and others.

Leroy Merlin entered the Romanian market nearly nine years ago, when it opened a store Soseaua Chitilei In Bucharest. Later on, in 2014, Leroy Merlin acquired the 15-storee network of Austria’s BauMax, as a result of the latter’s decision to sell its Romanian operations. The stores were rebranded as Leroy Merlin.
