Bring a little regional retail history into your everyday wardrobe with this K's Merchandise Mart quarter zip pullover. Raymond “Ray” Eldridge Sr. and his son Kay founded the Decatur, Illinois, company in 1957, building a catalog-showroom business that eventually served shoppers across Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Missouri, and Kentucky. From its broad merchandise selection to its Bargains Only stores, K's left a distinctive mark on Midwest communities. This piece suits former shoppers and collectors who remember the era of local department-store chains.
K's Merchandise Mart, Inc., commonly known as K's Merchandise, was a catalog showroom department store based in Decatur, Illinois. Raymond "Ray" Eldridge Sr. and his son Kay founded the company in 1957. It sold furniture, jewelry, electronics, and other general merchandise. By the time it closed, K's had 17 stores across Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Missouri, and Kentucky. The company also operated four Bargains Only stores in Illinois: Mt. Zion, Champaign, Springfield, and Peoria. Their assortment included clothing, household goods, and furniture. By the 2000s, competition from big-box stores had eroded K's sales for years. Boston's Gordon Brothers Group took over the company from the founding family and appointed Bill Weinstein as president. After an effort to turn around store operations, K's announced on October 3, 2006, that it would liquidate and close to pay its creditors in full. Bargains Only stores closed ahead of their parent stores; the final one, in Mt. Zion, closed in October 2006.
