Leroy Merlin, a retailer specialized in construction, decoration, and gardening, inaugurated today, June 18, its 23rd store in Romania and the second in the city of Iași, following an investment of over 3 million euros. Located in Mall Moldova, the new store will be operated by a team of 120 employees, dedicated to ensuring an optimal shopping experience for Leroy Merlin customers in the region, focused on fast services and low prices every day.
The store, built on a surface of over 9,200 m², includes specialized areas such as a 300 m² bathroom showroom, a 315 m² kitchen showroom, and a 440 m² tile and ceramic showroom. Customers will also benefit from a 1,500 m² covered drive-in area, allowing for direct loading of bulky products. In addition, the new Leroy Merlin unit will feature 15 checkout points, including 2 in the drive-in zone.
Through this investment, the company strengthens its presence in the northeastern region of Romania and addresses the growing demand for affordable DIY, home improvement, and gardening solutions. The new store aims to provide a complete shopping experience, focused on everyday low prices, fast services, and a wide product portfolio.
“Iasi is a strategic city for us – with an active community and a growing demand for modern, sustainable, and affordable home improvement solutions. By opening the second Leroy Merlin store in the city, we want to get closer to our customers in this part of the country and offer them complete shopping experience. Mall Moldova is a natural choice for this expansion, due to its visibility, accessibility, and commercial potential,” said Mathieu Bauduin, CEO of Leroy Merlin Romania.
