Wear a connection to the story of Byrons, a familiar name in Florida department store history. Founded in Miami in 1896 as Byrons Red Cross, the business grew from a pharmacy into a chain with a landmark Flagler Street location. Through changes in ownership and identity, it was known as J. Byrons, Jackson-Byron's, and finally Byrons. The stores' memorable English- and Spanish-language jingles remain part of their appeal for collectors and former shoppers. A conversation-starting choice for fans of Miami and regional retail history.
Byrons, also known as J. Byrons, Jbyrons, and Jackson Byrons, was a mid-priced American department store chain based in Miami, Florida. Its history began in 1896 with Byrons Red Cross, a pharmacy. In 1947, the Byrons flagship on Flagler Street was renamed Byrons Department Store. Jackson's Stores acquired the business in April 1958, adding it to its existing six-store chain and renaming the stores Jackson-Byron's. In 1968, pharmacy chain Eckerd Corporation bought J. Byron, then comprising 12 stores, and sold the chain in 1985. As part of that transition, Byrons left Orlando and sold its four stores there to Ross Dress for Less. The chain dropped the J from its name in 1991. Five years later, 17 stores closed, and the remaining 37 were sold to Uptons. Byrons commercials used memorable English and Spanish-language jingles, including "The right look, the right price" and "At Byrons the magic, the magic is in the prices," reflecting the brand's changing name and retail identity.
