Mervyn’s
Mervyn’s was an American mid-range department store chain founded in 1949 in San Lorenzo, CA, by Mervin G. Morris. The company operated over 200 stores in seven states across the western United States, including California, Arizona, and Nevada. Mervyn’s was known for offering a wide range of affordable clothing, home goods, and other products at its stores. The company targeted a middle-class clientele and often promoted itself as a family-friendly destination for shopping.
In the 1980s and 1990s, Mervyn’s experienced significant growth and expansion, opening new stores and acquiring other retail chains. However, the company faced increasing competition from discount retailers in the early 2000s, and eventually filed for bankruptcy in 2008. Mervyn’s was acquired by Target Corporation and all of its stores were closed by the end of 2009. Today, Mervyn’s is remembered as a popular retail chain that served generations of shoppers in the western United States.
