Abercrombie & Fitch (A&F) (NYSE: ANF) is an American
retailer, currently headed by chairman and CEO Michael S.
Jeffries. A&F focuses on casual wear for consumers ages
of 18 through 22. With over 300 locations in the United States,
the brand has embarked on international expansion throughout
various world markets. The company also operates three off-shoot
brands: abercrombie (childrenswear), Hollister Co., and Gilly
Hicks. The company also operated a post-grad subsidiary brand,
Ruehl No.925, that was shuttered in early 2010.
Founded in 1892 in Manhattan by David T. Abercrombie, A&F
had been an elite outfitter of sporting and excursion goods.
It struggled financially from the late 1960s until it was
purchased by The Limited in 1988 and repositioned, under the
management of Mike Jeffries, as the aspirational "Casual
Luxury" lifestyle brand in present form.
Especially since 1997, the company has consistently kept a
high-profile in the public eye - both positive and negative
- due to its type of advertising (including its own film and
magazines), its philanthropy, and its involvement in legal
conflicts over branding, clothing style and employment practices. |
