 PROFILE
Service with a smile is Nordstrom's corporate culture. One of the nation's largest upscale apparel and shoe retailers, Nordstrom sells clothes, shoes, and accessories through more than 75 Nordstrom stores and about 40 outlet stores (Nordstrom Rack) in 24 states. It also operates a clearance store, two freestanding shoe stores, and more than 20 Façonnable boutiques (primarily in Europe), and it sells goods online and through two catalogs. With its easy return policy and touches such as thank-you notes from employees, Nordstrom has developed a reputation for top-notch customer service. Members of the Nordstrom family, who own about one-third of Nordstrom's stock, closely supervise the chain.
