 PROFILE
Factory Card Outlet (FCO) may sell party supplies, but it hasn't been celebrating much since filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. The retailer operates about 175 discount stores in 20 states, primarily in the Midwest and along the eastern seaboard. Greeting cards, sold for 49 cents apiece, account for only a portion of the company's offerings; FCO also offers merchandise, discounted 20%-60%, such as gift wrap and ribbon, party supplies (invitations, party favors, candles, and piņatas), balloons, and celebratory items for birthdays, holidays, weddings, graduations, baby showers, and other special occasions. FCO is awaiting creditor approval for its acquisition by Factory Card Holdings.
