 PROFILE
Sears Canada is a reminder that American institutions aren't limited to the US. The company is one of the largest department store retailers in Canada; its 120 or so Sears department stores sell home fashions, appliances, and apparel. It also supplies about 130 independently owned stores with appliances, home electronics, and garden goods. It runs more than 30 Sears Whole Home furniture stores, 15 outlet stores, and has the largest catalog business in Canada. Sears Canada's services include auto service, home repair, and travel agencies. In 1999 the company bought bankrupt retailer The T. Eaton Company; it has kept about a handful of those stores as Eatons. US-based Sears, Roebuck and Co. owns about 55% of Sears Canada.
