History

Dedeman was founded in 1992 by two brothers named Adrian and Dragoș Pavăl, in Bacău, Romania.[5]

Its first store initially measured modest proportions, only 16 square meters, selling various retail merchandise.[6]

Since 2010, Dedeman is the DIY market leader in Romania by turnover, and since 2012, it further became so by number of stores.[7]

In October 2011, Dedeman became, for the first time, sponsor of the Romanian Olympic and Sporting Committee for two years.[8] The partnership continued in 2015, under the brand "Team Romania", when Dedeman became Main Partner of the Romanian Olympic and Sporting Committee for a period of 5 years.[9]

In 2014, Dedeman signed a sponsorship with the Romanian tennis player Simona Halep.[10]

In 2015, Dedeman became the fourth biggest player in the Central and East Europe DIY market, with a market share of 1.9%, according to a study by PMR Research.[11][12]
