The Kogan brothers built their business from a ladies’ clothing shop in Caguas into a department-store chain serving communities across the island. Their Santurce store introduced an air-conditioned shopping experience and customer self-selection, while later acquisitions brought the company into a new era. A fitting choice for golfers who enjoy local history, retail nostalgia, and stories rooted in Puerto Rico.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNew York Department Stores grew from a ladies’ clothing business started by Salomón and Roberto Kogan in Caguas, Puerto Rico. Salomón arrived from New York City in 1931, and the brothers expanded to Guayama, Ponce, and Yauco. In 1936 they opened Broadway Department Stores and Manhattan Department Stores in San Juan. A larger, air-conditioned store at Santurce opened on May 7, 1941; it introduced customer self-selection and shorter working hours that other merchants adopted. In 1942, after Kleins’ owners left Puerto Rico, the Kogans acquired its premises and consolidated their three San Juan stores under the New York Department Stores name. A store designed by Henry Klumb opened at Santurce’s stop 17 on April 1, 1947. The chain later expanded to Bayamón, Guaynabo, Mayagüez, and other Puerto Rican communities. In 1988, its shares transferred to NYTSA Acquisition alongside Seedman’s and Santurce Realty. In 1994, Marshalls agreed to acquire most of the chain’s stores, with many slated for conversion or closure. By 1995, investor Investcorp had abandoned hopes of recovery and returned its original investment to clients.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGet your audience in the zone with these personalized golf balls.
