Product Details & Size Guide
Keep a regional retail story close at hand with this Strouss-Hirshberg tough phone case. Founded in Youngstown, the company became a leading department store name throughout the Mahoning and Shenango Valleys. After May Department Stores acquired it in 1947, Strouss' expanded across northern Ohio and western Pennsylvania, with locations in downtown districts and suburban malls. The division's 1986 consolidation into Kaufmann's marked a turning point for the chain and its place in local shopping history.
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.
