British group Kingfisher, which bought French DIY retailer Bricostore’s local operations two years ago, has completed the transformation process of the Bricostore units into its own Brico Depot stores.

Brico Depot Baneasa, the commercial space located in the Baneasa area, in northern Bucharest, will be inaugurated on September 4. This used to be one of Bricostore’s biggest units in terms of sales. The store covers 7,500 sqm, and its rebranding process took 11 weeks. The unit has three main areas, for building materials, home renovation, and interior design.

With the completion of the Baneasa store, Kingfisher will own three Brico Depot stores in Bucharest.
