The company's primary retail banners include Leon's, The Brick, Brick Outlet, and The Brick Mattress Store, alongside commercial-focused brands like Appliance Canada and Midnorthern Appliance. Leon's generates the vast majority of its revenue through the retail sale of consumer discretionary goods, specifically targeting shoppers furnishing or upgrading their homes. The product mix is heavily weighted toward home furnishings and mattresses, which together account for approximately 65% to 70% of sales, complemented by major household appliances (roughly 30%) and consumer electronics (around 5%).
In addition to its core retail operations, Leon's operates a vertically integrated business model that includes ancillary services. Its Trans Global Services division provides household furniture, electronics, and appliance repair services, supporting both extended warranties and general customer needs. Furthermore, the company's wholly owned subsidiaries, Trans Global Insurance Company and Trans Global Life Insurance Company, offer credit insurance on customer financing balances. With a history dating back to 1909, Leon's leverages its significant scale to secure volume purchasing discounts and maintain a substantial market share in the Canadian home furnishings sector. The company also holds a portfolio of corporately owned real estate, which underpins its retail footprint.
