Pat Farrah is a co-founder of Home Depot.
With a background in merchandising, Farrah started his own big box home improvement retailer called Homeco in the late 70s. At the time Bernard Marcus and Arthur Blank were looking to start the company that would be Home Depot. Upon seeing Homeco, Marcus realized Farrah shared the same vision he had for a big box retailer. Marcus and Blank looked into buying Homeco, but the business had financing issues. When Homeco went out of business, they hired Farrah to help them get Home Depot off the ground.
In the early 90s, Farrah left Home Depot to pursue his own interests. He rejoined in 1996 and retired in the early 2000s.
