In early 2011, TJX closed the chain's remaining stores and converted some stores to other TJX brands.

AJWright (formerly formatted as A.J. Wright until 2009) was a chain of about 129 American retail/outlet stores established in 1998 and owned by TJX Companies. Like its sister company T.J. Maxx, AJWright sold clothing, domestics, giftware, footwear, accessories, and fragrances at prices between twenty and seventy percent below regular prices. AJWright differed from other TJX chains by refreshing its merchandise on a regular basis. For most stores, new shipments arrived every weekday.

A.J. Wright, launched in 1998, operates similarly to their other off-price concepts, but targets the moderate-income customer. A.J. Wright offers outstanding values on family apparel and footwear, accessories, home fashions, giftware, including toys and games, and special, opportunistic purchases. Prices at A.J. Wright are 20 - 70% below regular prices at national discount chains and budget department stores. At year-end 2006, A.J. Wright operated 129 stores. A.J. Wright stores average approximately 26,000 square feet in size. A.J. Wright expects to add 5 new stores in existing markets in 2007. Longer-term, they believe that the U.S. could potentially support approximately 1,000 stores.

The TJX Companies Inc. is the leading off-price apparel and home fashions retailer in the U.S. and worldwide, with over $17 billion in revenues in 2006, eight businesses, and more than 2,400 stores. TJX ranked 133rd in the most recent Fortune 500 rankings. TJX's off-price concepts include T.J.Maxx, Marshalls, HomeGoods, and A.J. Wright, in the U.S., Winners and HomeSense in Canada, and T.K. Maxx in Europe. Bob's Stores is a value-oriented, casual clothing and footwear superstore in the Northeastern U.S. Their off-price mission is to deliver a rapidly changing assortment of quality, brand name merchandise at prices that are 20-60% less than department and specialty store regular prices, every day. Their target customer is a middle to upper-middle income shopper, who is fashion and value conscious and fits the same profile as a department store shopper, with the exception of A.J. Wright, which reaches a more moderate-income market, and Bob's Stores, which targets customers in the moderate to upper-middle income range.
