PROFILE |
 |
Claire's Stores makes the most of a retailing tenet: Teens have limited budgets, and they love shopping, especially at malls. (Like, duh.) Claire's operates more than 3,000 boutiques, primarily in malls, that sell inexpensive (less than $20) jewelry and accessories for girls. Stores include Claire's, Afterthoughts, The Icing, Bijoux One, and Cleopatre, among others. It sells apparel and other items for boys at Mr. Rags. In addition to locations in the US, Canada, and Europe, Claire's also operates stores in the Caribbean and Japan. The company bought the rival Afterthoughts chain from Venator Group in 1999. President and CEO Rowland Schaefer and family own 32% of Claire's voting power.
