GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.
FedMart's story started in 1954, when Sol Price opened a discount store in an inherited San Diego warehouse. The company expanded from California into the Southwest, dropped its membership requirement in the 1960s, and added departments that included pharmacies and optical services. This laptop sleeve honors the growth and changing character of a distinctive American retailer. It suits collectors of discount-store history, former FedMart shoppers, and anyone who appreciates the story behind the stores that shaped regional communities.
FedMart began in 1954 in San Diego, California, when attorney Sol Price opened a discount store in an inherited warehouse at 2380 Main Street. Initially open to government employees through a family membership, it sold a mix of jewelry, furniture, and liquor and took in $4.5 million in its first year. A second store opened in Phoenix, Arizona, in 1955, followed by one in San Antonio, Texas; the chain later expanded across California and the Southwest. In the 1960s, FedMart dropped membership requirements and added food, wholesale-priced gasoline, pharmacies, and optical departments. It became publicly traded on the American Stock Exchange in 1969. In 1975, German businessman Hugo Mann gained control of the company, and Price left his leadership role the next year. FedMart expanded through leases and acquisitions, including the West Coast division of Two Guys in 1977 and Globe Store in 1978. With about 70 stores by 1979, the chain later began losing money. Mann took it private in 1981, and FedMart closed in 1982. Target leased 35 former locations, while the remaining sites went to Ralphs or other retail operators. Some former stores continued under new ownership, and the company changed its name to Sunbelt Realty.
