Target Corporation
/ Target.com
(Formerly: Dayton Hudson Corp.)
Target Corporation is a growing company focused on general merchandise retailing.
Their principal operating strategy is to
provide exceptional value to consumers through multiple retail formats ranging
from upscale discount and moderate-priced to full-service department stores.
Target's first store opened in Roseville, Minnesota, in 1962. Its on-trend
merchandise at affordable prices launched a new era in discount retailing.
This "T-1" store was easy to shop, attractive and always clean.
It served as the prototype for every Target store opened since then, and
it changed how consumers think about discount shopping.
Today, Target operates more than 1,300
stores in 47 states, including over 140 SuperTarget
stores that add an upscale grocery shopping experience. Target Corporation
also owns Associated Merchandising Corporation (AMC), which sources
the high quality apparel and hardlines merchandise for the company. AMC
also provides international sourcing for a number of retailers.

The Territory Ahead:
they began their journey in 1988 as a new kind of clothing company, offering
personality through special fabrics; distinguishing details; and easy, wearable
designs. Unlike many catalog companies that buy their items from traditional
suppliers, they design and develop their clothing themselves, as well as
many of their accessory and gift items, to offer a collection of merchandise
that can't be found anywhere else.
Timberland
: their story began
in 1918, in a small Boston, Massachusetts shoe company where Timberland
founder, Nathan Swartz, began his bootmaking career as an apprentice stitcher.
With his own hands, he cut leather, stitched seams, attached soles and learned
how to craft fine leather boots. In 1952, he bought half an interest in
The Abington Shoe Company. Three years later, he bought the remaining interest
and welcomed his sons into the company. Together, they made shoes for leading
manufacturers for nearly 10 years. In the '60s, waterproof leather boots
as they know them didn't really exist. The Swartz family helped change all
that by introducing injection-molding technology to the footwear industry.
This technology fused soles to leather uppers without stitching, producing
one of the first truly waterproof boots. In 1973, the Timberland name
was born. "Timberland" started as the brand name for their original
waterproof leather boot. Then, because the boot was so popular, the company
name was officially changed to The Timberland Company. In 1978 and 1979,
Timberland added casual and boat shoes to its line to become more than just
a boot company. In the 1980s, the company expanded into an international
lifestyle brand. Sidney Swartz took the reigns and under his leadership
Timberland was launched in Italy, their first entry into the international
market (today they are represented all over the world). Then they introduced
