Bring a little Grand Rapids history along to work or study with this Steketee's laptop sleeve. Founded as a dry goods business in 1862, the family store grew with the city and opened its eight-story Monroe Avenue flagship in 1915. Its later stores connected shoppers across southwestern Michigan, while closures from 1998 through 2003 marked the end of a familiar retail chapter. A considered accessory for collectors and anyone who values the stories behind local places and brands.
Steketee's was a Grand Rapids, Michigan, department store whose roots date to 1862, when Paul Steketee and John H. Doornich started a dry goods business. After a fire devastated the operation, Doornich sold his interest to Steketee, whose family helped rebuild it. As Grand Rapids grew, the family developed an eight-story flagship on Monroe Avenue, which opened in 1915. The company expanded beyond downtown in the 1950s, opening its first satellite store in 1958 and later operating several stores across southwestern Michigan. In 1991, the Fort Worth department store company Dunlaps bought out the Steketee family and brought the stores into its group of brands. Changing retail patterns and competition from national brands affected the business. The downtown Grand Rapids store closed in 1998. The Maple Hill Mall store in Kalamazoo closed in 2003, the same year Dunlaps shut the last Steketee's store, at Westshore Mall. The former downtown Grand Haven store building was later adapted for use as the Tri-Cities Historical Museum.
