Kohl?s Corporation is a department store with its headquarters based in Milwaukee. The company operates in 49 states with 1089 stores. In 2008 the company was listed as the 24th largest retailer in America, and in 2010 it was listed as number 135 on the Fortune 500. The founder of the Kohl?s Corporation was Maxwell Kohl, his first supermarket was built in Wisconsin in 1946; however prior to this he had worked in traditional grocery stores. He opened his first department store in 1962. His store had something for everyone, with prices ranging from high end to discounted. The store sold a range of different products from sporting equipment, to engine oil to candy. In 1986 the company expanded and 27 more stores were added over the next two years. Further expansion took place in 1988 with 26 locations added in Chicago, Michigan, Minnesota and Minneapolis. The company went public in 1992 which lead to a new period of expansion. Kohl?s stores now supply a number of exclusive labels and brand name merchandise. They sell a range of different goods including shoes, apparel, men, women and children?s apparel. They also sell products for the home including electric shavers, vacuums, small electronics, luggage, bedding and toys. Some of the Kohl?s locations operate in malls; however most of the stores are free standing. Their operations are significantly different from stores such as Nordstrom or Macy?s. One of the major differences is that the store utilizes the race track aisle system; this is where one aisle circles around the entire store. This is a technique used in discount stores but is very rarely found in department stores. Since 1998 the company has also operated an online store, its website, Kohl?s official website, attracts at least 50 million visitors per year.
