PROFILE |
 |
Who's got a finger on the button? Jo-Ann Stores does, to say the least. Jo-Ann (formerly Fabri-Centers of America) is the largest US fabrics retailer, with more than 1,000 stores in 49 states. The stores operate under the Jo-Ann Fabrics and Crafts and Jo-Ann etc banners and are located mainly in strip shopping centers. Seeking to expand its appeal to non-sewers, Jo-Ann has been focusing on its Jo-Ann etc concept: 46,000-sq.-ft. superstores that offer a range of arts and crafts supplies, home-decorating items, and holiday merchandise, as well as how-to classes. The company has been closing underperforming stores. Chairman, president, and CEO Alan Rosskamm and his mother, Betty (an SVP), own 15% of Jo-Ann.
