History
The founder of ROST, Morris would work 85 hours a week doing all of the buying and bookkeeping for his department store. In 1958 Ross sold his store to William Isaacson as he wanted to make a living as a residential and commercial real estate developer. Isaacson, further built the company to six stores, located in Pacifica, San Bruno, Vacaville, Novato, Redwood City, and Castro Valley. In 1982 Mervin Morris, founder of the Mervyns chain of department stores along with a group of investors, purchased the six Ross Department Stores in San Francisco. After this, the store format was changed to off-price retail units. Within three years of this change, the company rapidly expanded to 107 stores under Stuart Moldaw and Don Rowlett. The annual sales reached $1.4 billion by the end of 1995. They were operating 292 stores in 18 states during the same year. By 2012, ROST reached $9.7 billion for the fiscal year as it ran 1,091 stores in 33 states in addition to 108 for Dd’s Discounts in 8 states. Barbara Rentler has taken place of CEO Michael Balmuth since June 1, 2014, thereby becoming the 25th woman chief executive officer of a Fortune 500 company, Ross Stores.
The company’s strong value proposition is continuing to resonate with the bargain-hungry shoppers. Moreover, Ross is also highly rated by the Investment Banking Division. As most of the lower and middle-income groups are feeling squeezed economically over the past six years it remained a tremendous value proposition for off-price companies like ROST. Analysts see that the company’s strong track record is seen continuing amid healthy off-price retail trends.
