Leon’s has announced that it bought it’s rival The Brick for $700million.
The CEO of Leon’s said: … the transaction will give the brands access to national buying opportunities in merchandising and marketing and a national distribution network that will enhance online shopping capabilities.
They will continue to operate as separate businesses but this deal means The Brick, United Furniture Warehouse and Leon’s will all be owned by the same company – likely not something that will make them consumer and competition friendly despite increased marketing power.
Serves the Brick right I have had nothing but bad customer experiance their. Also can not stand the vulture like sales people when you walk into the store. Leon’s is nothing like this.
KK7, what Leon’s have you been shopping at? They’re all the same, which is why I hate shopping for furniture.
If you can’t beat ’em…buy em. I hate leons
