PROFILE |

The May Department Stores Company's expansion plans are blooming. The retailer is the #2 upscale department store operator in the US, behind Federated Department Stores. May has about 425 stores coast-to-coast under a dozen names: Lord & Taylor, Foley's, Filene's, Hecht's, Strawbridge's, Robinsons-May, Famous-Barr, L.S. Ayres, Meier & Frank, The Jones Store, and Kaufmann's. The company primarily sells designer-label apparel, shoes, cosmetics, and home furnishings to middle- and upper-middle income buyers. May is striving to reach out to younger customers with hip brands. The company expanded into the matrimonial market with its purchase of 120-store David's Bridal in 2000.
