[Chimpsarecute]

I did a google search on "Home Depot" Mexico and came up with a few links.   One is from home depots US website:   In June, 2001, The Home Depot acquired Total HOME, Mexico's second largest home improvement retailer. Their stores were converted to Home Depot stores in March 2002. We also acquired the four-store Del Norte home improvement chain in June 2002. Format: 80,000 square foot retail facility Customer base: Do-it-yourself (DIY) and professional (Pro) Product selection: 30,000 different kinds of building materials, home improvement supplies, interior design products, plants and lawn and garden accessories across 17 departments   I don't know if by "converted" Home Depot means selling FFU products as they do in the US or not.   Here is an article from the Atlanta Journal with the inside of a Home Depot in Monterrey (Nuevo Leon)   http://www.ajc.com/business/content/business/homedepot/0803/31mexico.html   Canada News Wire:   http://www.newswire.ca/en/releases/archive/March2002/20/c2765.html   Hope this helps!   Euric   ----- Original Message ----- From: john mercer To: U.S. Metric Association Sent: Saturday, 2003-12-27 22:32 Subject: [USMA:28005] Home Depot I just did some searching and found out that Home Depot have some stores in Mexico.  I wonder if the products they sell in them are metric or FFU?  I don't know if they have a Mexican web site, and if they do would it be in Spanish? Could anyone find out if the products they sell are in FFU and if they have an english link on their web site in Mexico if they have one.  Thank you very much for all your help.
