The Home Depot was founded in 1978 by Bernie Marcus and Arthur Blank, with the goal of building a one-stop warehouse for home improvement enthusiasts, where both professionals and DIYers could find everything they needed at affordable prices. Their first two stores opened in Atlanta, Georgia in 1979 and revolutionized the retail hardware industry by offering massive selections, deep discounts, and knowledgeable staff. Their vision helped grow Home Depot into the largest home improvement retailer in the world.
