The Home Depot said it will combine its Mid-Atlantic division, currently based in South Plainfield, N.J., and its Southeast division, currently based in Atlanta, Ga., to become one operating division.
The new Eastern division will service more than 450 Home Depot store locations in the Mid-Atlantic and southeastern United States and the Caribbean and will have more than 90,000 employees. It will be headquartered in Atlanta. The company said it plans to maintain a facility in New Jersey.
