Give your everyday setup a connection to Shoppers Fair, the discount department store chain founded in Bridgeport, Connecticut, in 1956. The company expanded across 12 states and had a strong Michigan presence, then agreed in 1971 to acquire eight closed stores in the Detroit metropolitan area. Its last stores closed by 1975, making this a thoughtful pick for collectors interested in regional retail and the changing department store landscape. A practical way to keep that history close at work or while traveling.
Shoppers Fair was an American discount department store chain founded in 1956 with a store in Bridgeport, Connecticut. The chain was owned by New York City-based Mangel and primarily operated in Michigan. By 1962, it had become a Mangel subsidiary, with 35 stores in 12 states, including nine in Michigan. In 1971, Shoppers Fair agreed to acquire eight stores that Borman's Inc. had closed in the Detroit metropolitan area because they were unprofitable. One of these, in Roseville, had never opened under its previous operator, Yankee Stores. Shoppers Fair also figured in two name-related lawsuits, in 1960 and 1964; both rulings favored the other businesses involved. Mangel filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in March 1974, when it had 46 Shoppers Fair stores and 94 clothing stores operating as Mangels. By December 1974, all Shoppers Fair stores in Detroit had closed. The chain's ten remaining stores went out of business by 1975, ending its retail history.
