Mark a chapter of Wisconsin retail history with this Kohl's Food Stores unisex quarter zip pullover. The story reaches back to Maxwell Kohl's grocery businesses in 1927 and the first supermarket he built in 1946, which helped launch a major southeastern Wisconsin chain. Sold to A&P in 1983, the stores later operated as Kohl's Food Emporium and closed in 2003. Its regional connection makes it a meaningful choice for former shoppers, Milwaukee-area history fans, and collectors of enduring local names.
Kohl's Food Stores grew from grocery businesses operated by Maxwell Kohl since 1927. In 1946, he built his first supermarket, the beginning of a southeastern Wisconsin chain that became the largest supermarket chain in the Milwaukee area. The business also formed part of a wider Kohl's company: in September 1962, Maxwell Kohl opened its first department store in Brookfield, Wisconsin. In 1972, Batus Inc., the U.S. retail division of British American Tobacco Company, bought a controlling interest in Kohl's Corporation, which then operated 50 grocery stores along with department, drug, and liquor stores. Members of the Kohl family, including Allen and Herb Kohl, continued to manage the company; Herb left management in 1979. In 1983, the grocery stores were sold to The Great Atlantic and Pacific Tea Company (A&P), and operated first as Kohl's Food Store and later as Kohl's Food Emporium. In February 2003, A&P put the stores up for sale as part of a debt-reduction effort. That year, A&P closed all Kohl's Food Stores locations. Madison-area stores were sold to Roundy's; a reported possible purchase by Jewel did not proceed.
