PROFILE |
 |
Cost Plus goods adorn dining rooms and picnics with wicker, wine, and cheese. The firm's more than 130 Cost Plus World Market stores sell furniture, rugs, baskets, and ceramics, as well as gourmet food and beverages. Designed to resemble upscale Third World markets, Cost Plus' stores are located in 19 states, primarily in the West. It is opening 25-30 stores per year as it expands eastward. The company targets women between the ages of 22 and 55. Much of what it sells is imported from 70 countries; many of its items are proprietary and are sold under its World Market private label. Some of the first Cost Plus franchises renamed themselves to launch Pier 1 Imports, and a rivalry was born.
