Castorama is a French private retailer company specialized in trading do-it-yourself items, home improvement instruments and materials as well as gardening products. It was founded by French entrepreneur Christian Dubois in 1969 in Lille, France. In the eighties, the company was rapidly developing and, in the nineties started expanding across the borders, having opened its first hypermarket in Italy. In 1998 – 2002, the British multinational retailing group Kingfisher plc acquired Castorama, which continues to operate under its previous name but within the Kingfisher group.
