Home Depot has deployed strategies to expand on its B2B sales through its Pro segment in Q1, including refining artificial intelligence (AI) tools, bolstering partnerships and making another acquisition. CEO Ed Decker said Home Depot’s objective is to win more Pro business, products and purchase occasions.
He claimed that no retailer has the scale or customer reach that Home Depot does to penetrate that segment of customers. Additionally, Decker claimed Home Depot services “most Pro customers in some way or fashion.”
Decker said Home Depot is “looking at something like $400 million of cross-sell run rate” from its primary brand and subsidiaries SRS Distribution and GMS. SRS Distribution acquired Mingledorff’s, a heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) distributor, earlier in May. Home Depot acquired SRS Distribution in 2024.
