{"product_id":"pay-n-pak-heavy-knit-quarter-zip-sweatshirt","title":"Pay 'n Pak Heavy Knit Quarter-Zip Sweatshirt","description":"GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCelebrate a memorable chapter of regional retail with this Pay 'n Pak heavy knit quarter-zip sweatshirt. Stan Thurman established the company in 1962, and the chain later grew from its Washington roots into a Western home improvement business. Its Kent flagship became known for a distinctive mall layout, while the company experienced major changes in leadership, ownership, and fortunes before its remaining stores were liquidated in 1992. This piece connects everyday style with a layered corporate story, making it a meaningful choice for former customers and collectors of Pacific Northwest history.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePay 'n Pak was a home improvement chain based in Kent, Washington. Stan Thurman, an electrical and plumbing supply retailer from Longview, Washington, established the business in 1962. In 1969, Pay 'n Pak merged with Eagle Electric \u0026amp; Plumbing, a company led by Thurman's protégé David Heerensperger, and went public. Thurman was voted out that year, and Heerensperger became chairman, serving until 1989. The chain's original Kent flagship, Pay 'n Pak Mall, arranged its hardware departments as separate electrical, plumbing, and lumber stores and included a coffee shop. A larger store was built beside the mall by the 1980s, and the mall was sold. In 1987, the company faced a hostile corporate raid attempt; in 1988, it went private for $226 million. It filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 1991 and liquidated its remaining stores in 1992. Thurman Industries bought four former locations in Butte and Billings, Montana, and Moses Lake and Wenatchee, Washington, operating them as Thurman Pay 'N Pak home centers. Ernst took over the Kent store and distribution center. Thurman Industries liquidated and closed its four stores in March 2003. Heerensperger left in 1989 to form Eagle Hardware \u0026amp; Garden.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"1\" style=\"padding:
