Carry a piece of New Orleans retail memory every day with a K&B phone case. This tribute looks back to Katz & Besthoff, the 1905-founded drugstore chain whose purple storefront identity became part of local vocabulary. From Canal Street beginnings to a wider Gulf Coast footprint, K&B remains a vivid reminder of hometown errands, private-label finds, and an independent business era that still resonates with collectors.
K&B, short for Katz & 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&B Purple, used on signs, cash registers, employee uniforms, and other store elements; the shade remains part of New Orleans local vocabulary. K&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&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&B sold its assets to Rite Aid in 1997, after which the stores were rebranded. K&B Plaza retained its familiar name, while the K&B family continued to occupy office space there.
