Praktiker is a German hypermarket chain offering home improvement and do-it-yourself goods. It is based in Kirkel, Saarland, and opened its first store in 1978. Initially owned by ASKO, the chain became a division of Metro AG after the merger of ASKO with Metro Cash & Carry in 1995. It was spun off as a fully independent corporation on 22 November 2005, listing on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange and becoming an MDAX constituent.
