Sears, Roebuck and Co. Company Profile
Sears, Roebuck and Co. hasn't outgrown the mall scene, but it's spending more time in other places. Beyond its 860 US mall-based stores, Sears has more than 1,200 other locations nationwide. The company operates more than 850 independently owned Sears dealer stores in small towns and about 110 Sears hardware stores and some 85 Orchard Supply Hardware shops. Sears' stores sell apparel, tools, and appliances, and provide home services (remodeling, appliance repairs) under the Sears Parts & Repair Services and A&E Factory brands. Its Web site also sells appliances and tools. Sears was acquired by Kmart Holding Corp. in 2005. The deal formed a new parent company, Sears Holdings, which owns both chains.
