PROFILE |
 |
Leslie's Poolmart is the big fish of pool product retailers. The company sells pool chemicals, cleaning and testing equipment, covers, liners, and recreational items through about 385 stores in 30 states; mostly in California, Texas, and the Northeast/Mid-Atlantic. It also sells through catalogs (its mailing list reaches 90% of the US households with in-ground pools) and its Web site. Leslie's also makes chlorine tablets and repackages other chemicals to be sold under the Leslie name. Pool chemicals, major equipment, and parts account for about 80% of sales. Founded in 1963 and public since 1991, Leslie's went private in a 1997 management LBO backed by Leonard Green & Partners, which owns nearly 60% of the company.
