Home Depot's Largest Acquisition: SRS Distribution
Home Depot's recent $18.25 billion acquisition of SRS Distribution marks the company's largest acquisition yet. SRS Distribution is a leading residential trade distribution company that specializes in professional roofing, landscaping, and pool contractor supplies. This acquisition expands Home Depot's total addressable market by $50 billion, indicating a strategic move towards capturing a larger share of the professional services segment. Despite having a substantial number of existing stores, Home Depot views this acquisition as an opportunity to leverage its expertise, increase buying power, and reach a broader customer base.
