Make a gathering a little more memorable with this SUN Super Saving Centers can cooler, honoring a regional retailer with a story collectors remember. Founded in 1949, Sun Television and Appliances served shoppers in cities and rural communities with electronics, appliances, and office equipment. The proposed acquisition of 1996 did not proceed, and Sun moved from Chapter 11 to liquidation before the end of 1998. This piece is a fun fit for casual get-togethers and collections focused on American store names and retail history.
Sun Television and Appliances was a specialty retailer of consumer electronics, home appliances, and office equipment. Founded in 1949 by brothers Macy and Herbie Block, it operated stores in cities across the Midwest as well as in rural communities where there was no other competition. Its reported operating area included Ohio, Indiana, New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland, West Virginia, Virginia, and Kentucky. In late 1996, Indiana-based H.H. Gregg Appliances and Electronics arranged to buy Sun in an $87.5 million deal, offering $5 per share for Sun's 17.5 million outstanding shares. H.H. Gregg withdrew over concerns about Sun's financial condition. Sun filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in September 1998. After efforts to sell the company as a going concern failed, it converted to Chapter 7 liquidation and ceased operations by the end of 1998. H.H. Gregg purchased some former Sun locations and reopened them under its own name, marking a transition for those stores from the regional retailer to a successor operator.
