The company has around 80 shops and 435 franchise stores across France and also has operations across numerous European countries, as well as in South America and North Africa.[1] HistoryMr Bricolage was founded in the early 1964[2] as the Action Nationale des Promoteurs du Faite-le-vous-même (ANPF), the direct French translation of `do-it-yourself' by the Tabur family who were keen to promote the fast-growing new hobby of DIY.[3] Originally, each store had its own name. In 1980, all the stores were united under a single brand: Mr.Bricolage.[4] The ANPF was a cooperative organization that, as a holding company, converted its status in 1995 to that of a limited liability company in order to be able to raise outside capital.[3] The company floated in 2000 on the Euronext Paris.[4] Shareholding
