About Facility
Madewell
J.Crew Group, LLC is a renowned American multi-brand, multi-channel specialty retailer known for its classic style and high-quality clothing. The company's journey began in 1947 when Mitchell Cinader and Saul Charles founded Popular Merchandise, Inc., which initially sold low-priced women's clothing through in-home demonstrations. Over the years, the company evolved, and by 1983, it had rebranded itself as J.Crew, Inc., marking the beginning of a new era in retail fashion.
The company's growth was fueled by its successful catalog operations, which offered a Ralph Lauren look at a more affordable price. This strategy led to explosive growth, with annual sales skyrocketing from $3 million to over $100 million within five years. In 1989, J.Crew opened its first retail store in South Street Seaport, Manhattan, setting the stage for a nationwide expansion.
Today, J.Crew Group operates under the ownership of Anchorage Capital Group and Leonard Green & Partners. It has established itself as an internationally recognized omnichannel retailer with a family of brands that includes J.Crew, J.Crew Factory, and Madewell. The company's product range is extensive, offering jewelry, accessories, footwear, and apparel for women, men, and children. It also sells home goods, office supplies, tableware, travel gear, and more.
J.Crew Group is particularly known for its signature categories such as cashmere, coats, blazers, and pants. It has also made a name for itself through collaborations with some of the coolest brands in the market. As of 2016, the company operated more than 450 retail stores across the United States, and despite facing challenges like the COVID-19 pandemic, which led to a bankruptcy protection filing in 2020, J.Crew has continued to be a staple in the American fashion industry.
The company's commitment to quality and its ability to stay in tune with the evolving fashion trends have allowed it to maintain a loyal customer base. With a focus on providing a Ralph Lauren look without the high-end price tag, J.Crew has carved out a niche for itself in the competitive world of retail fashion.
