This K\u0026amp;B backpack celebrates Katz \u0026amp; Besthoff, the hometown drugstore chain founded on Canal Street in 1905 and remembered across the Gulf Coast for its unmistakable purple identity. The design speaks to neighborhood errands, city memories, private-label finds, and the independent spirit that made K\u0026amp;B a lasting local landmark long after its 1997 rebrand.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eK\u0026amp;B, short for Katz \u0026amp; Besthoff, was a New Orleans drug store chain founded in 1905. Gustave Katz and Sydney J. Besthoff began the business at 732 Canal Street and expanded it through the twentieth century into a regional chain serving the United States Gulf Coast. The stores became closely associated with their distinctive K\u0026amp;B Purple, used on signs, cash registers, employee uniforms, and other store elements; the shade remains part of New Orleans local vocabulary. K\u0026amp;B sold a broad selection of private-label household goods, liquor, and signature ice creams, and operated an independent credit card program. Its later headquarters, K\u0026amp;B Plaza at Lee Circle in the Central Business District, was acquired in the mid-1970s. The older headquarters and warehouse at 900 Camp Street became the Contemporary Arts Center headquarters around the start of the 1980s. K\u0026amp;B sold its assets to Rite Aid in 1997, after which the stores were rebranded. K\u0026amp;B Plaza retained its familiar name, while the K\u0026amp;B family continued to occupy office space there.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eA rugged, everyday 20L backpack designed for days that move fast and demand durability.
