Formerly Dayton Hudson, Target Corporation operates about 1,550 stores in three formats: Target, a discount chain with more than 1,200 stores; 266 Mervyn's midrange department stores, found mainly in the west and south; and Marshall Field's upscale department stores in the upper Midwest. Target and its cousins, including SuperTarget and Target Greatland, account for more than 80% of Target Corporation's sales and have carved out a niche by offering more upscale, fashion−forward merchandise than rivals Wal−Mart and struggling Kmart.

Source: Proxy, April 14, 2003 Report Builder − Target Corporation − Hoover's Online 19 Overview Target stores are at the center of Target Corporation's retail empire. Formerly Dayton Hudson, Target Corporation operates about 1,550 stores in three formats: Target, a discount chain with more than 1,200 stores; 266 Mervyn's midrange department stores, found mainly in the west and south; and Marshall Field's upscale department stores in the upper Midwest. Target and its cousins, including SuperTarget and Target Greatland, account for more than 80% of Target Corporation's sales and have carved out a niche by offering more upscale, fashion−forward merchandise than rivals Wal−Mart and struggling Kmart. Target Corporation also owns catalog retailer Rivertown Trading and apparel supplier Associated Merchandising. The company's namesake discount store division is expanding aggressively in the Northeast and Mid−Atlantic. It is expanding its SuperTarget format (most recently in Texas), a newer 174,000−sq.−ft. grocery/discount store concept that includes groceries under the Archer Farms brand. Other formats include Target Greatland (70% larger than regular Targets) and a growing online store called target.direct. Target is also testing dollar sections, called One−Stop, in some stores. The chain will also build two new import warehouses in a bid to increase direct sourcing. A 156,000−square−foot store in the Bronx is slated to open in 2004. Target has distinguished itself from rival Wal−Mart Stores and grown to become the nation's #2 discounter by employing a strategy that relies on exclusive private−label offerings from big name designers. Fashion designer Isaac Mizrahi joined the discounter's stable of in−house talent in mid−2003 offering a line of chic and affordable women's apparel and accessories. Other designers with exclusive lines at Target include Amy Coe (children's bedding and accessories), Liz Lange (maternity), Mossimo (junior fashions), and the architect Michael Graves (housewares). Target Corporation has repositioned its Hudson's and Dayton's chains all under the Marshall Field's banner and is closing or selling off under performing stores, most recently two stores in Columbus, Ohio, to rival The May Department Stores Company. It plans to lease large portions of Field's flagship State Street store in Chicago (second in size only to Macy's Herald Square location) to outside upscale vendors to boost sales per square foot. Mervyn's, meanwhile, is being squeezed by both discounters (including a newcomer to California, Kohl's) and higher−end retailers. After years of struggling to revive its Mervyn's and Marshall Field's operations, Target Corp. has hired Goldman Sachs to possibly sell one or both of the chains, whose book value is about $1.8 billion each. The nation's #2 discounter is #1 when it comes to corporate giving. Target topped the Forbes list of America's Most Philanthropic Companies in 2001, donating 2.5% of its 2000 income (nearly $86 million). By comparison Wal−Mart gave away $116.5 million in 2001, less than 1% of its income in 2000. Target plans to drop paid vacation and health insurance coverage for part−time workers at its Target stores. Report Builder − Target Corporation − Hoover's Online 20 History The panic of 1873 left Joseph Hudson bankrupt. After he paid his debts at 60 cents on the dollar, he saved enough to open a men's clothing store in Detroit in 1881. Among his innovations were merchandise−return privileges and price marking in place of bargaining. By 1891 Hudson's was the largest retailer of men's clothing in the US. Hudson repaid his creditors from 1873 in full, with interest. When Hudson died in 1912, four nephews expanded the business. Former banker George Dayton established a dry−goods store in 1902 in Minneapolis. Like Hudson, he offered return privileges and liberal credit. His store grew to a 12−story, full−line department store. After WWII both companies saw that the future lay in the suburbs. In 1954 Hudson's built Northland in Detroit, then the largest US shopping center. Dayton's built the world's first fully enclosed shopping mall in Edina, a Minneapolis suburb, in 1956. In 1962 Dayton's opened its first discount store in Roseville (naming the store Target to distinguish the discounter from its higher−end department stores). Dayton's went public in 1966, the same year it began the B. Dalton bookstore chain. Three years later it merged with the family−owned Hudson's, forming Dayton Hudson. Dayton Hudson purchased more malls and invested in such specialty areas as consumer electronics and hard goods. Target had 24 stores by 1970. The Target chain became the company's top moneymaker in 1977. The next year Dayton Hudson bought California−based Mervyn's. In the late 1970s and 1980s, it sold nine regional malls and several other businesses, including the 800−store B. Dalton chain to Barnes & Noble. The Target stores division purchased Indianapolis−based Ayr−Way (1980) and Southern California−based Fedmart stores (1983). In the late 1980s Dayton Hudson took Target to Los Angeles and the Northwest. Robert Ulrich, who began with the company as a merchandise trainee in 1967, became president and CEO of the Target stores division in 1987 and chairman and CEO of Dayton Hudson in 1994. Dayton Hudson opened the first Target Greatland store in 1990. By this time it had 420 Target stores. Also that year Dayton Hudson bought the Marshall Field's chain of 24 department stores from B.A.T Industries. Marshall Field's began as a dry−goods business that Marshall Field bought in 1865 and subsequently built into Chicago's premier upscale retailer. SuperTarget stores were introduced in 1995. The Target stores division opened stores in the Mid−Atlantic and Northeast the next year, while the department store division began selling off its Marshall Field's locations in Texas. In 1998 Dayton Hudson boosted its Internet presence by purchasing direct−marketing company Rivertown Trading; it also bought apparel supplier Associated Merchandising that year. In 2000 Dayton Hudson renamed itself Target Corporation. In early 2001 the company renamed its Dayton's and Hudson's chains Marshall Field's. Also that year Target acquired the rights to 35 former Montgomery Wards stores from the bankrupt retailer. The following year it opened 30 of them as Target stores. Net of closings, 94 Target stores opened in 2002, while neither Mervyn's nor Marshall Field's added to their store counts. In March 2003, three new SuperTarget stores opened in the Dallas/Fort Worth area.
