Introduce a new generation to a name woven into regional shopping history with this Strouss-Hirshberg infant bodysuit. Founded in Youngstown by Isaac Strouss and Bernard Hirshberg, the retailer became a leading presence in the Mahoning and Shenango Valleys and later expanded across northern Ohio and western Pennsylvania. Its journey from downtown stores to suburban malls gives local families a story to share. A thoughtful choice for relatives who collect department-store memorabilia or cherish memories of shopping around Youngstown and nearby communities.
Founded in Youngstown, Ohio, as Strouss-Hirshberg Co. by Isaac Strouss and Bernard Hirshberg, the department store became a leading retailer in the Mahoning and Shenango Valleys. May Department Stores purchased the company in 1947, shortened its name to Strouss', and expanded the chain across northern Ohio and western Pennsylvania under president C.J. Strouss. At its peak, the chain operated about 12 stores in downtown districts, malls, and strip plazas. In 1966, it opened a store at Boardman Plaza in Boardman Township, Ohio; that location moved to Southern Park Mall in 1970. In 1986, May Company consolidated the Strouss division into Kaufmann's. Many stores closed that May, including the downtown Youngstown and New Castle locations, while some mall stores became Kaufmann's. The changes followed a company strategy to focus Kaufmann's on mall locations and came amid a depressed Youngstown-area economy. The Strouss name thus traces a regional retailer from its independent founding through its May ownership and division consolidation.
