Leon’s sells a wide range of home furnishings including furniture, mattresses, major appliances, and home electronics through both physical stores and online channels.

The company expanded significantly through acquisitions, most notably purchasing The Brick in 2013 for approximately $700 million, which doubled its store count and enhanced its presence in Western Canada. Leon’s operates large-format retail stores typically ranging from 30,000 to 50,000 square feet, often located in power centers and shopping plazas. The company provides various financing options to customers, including rent-to-own programs and extended payment plans.

The retailer maintains distribution centers across Canada to support its store network and offers delivery and installation services. The company remains family-controlled, with members of the founding Leon family continuing to hold significant ownership and management positions.
