Sir Ian Cheshire - Former B&q Ceo


Recommended Posts

Makes you wonder how big the company is though. Over here the largest DIY store chain are called Home Depot but everything from the colours of the signs to the lettering and the layout is identical to B&Q. They are absolutely huge over here. I've often wondered if it's the same outfit.

B&Q are part of the Kingfisher Group. Home Depot were rumoured a few years back to buy them, but it never materialised. So, they're not the same entity.

There must be something dodgy going on as it really does seem to be the same store. There are many products and companies both sides of the pond that are the same but named different. That's why it makes sense to me.

Make sure you don't visit between late December and March then. Cold isn't the word. :shocked:
