What is sanger-harris?

Sanger-Harris was a department store chain based in Dallas, Texas, United States. It was founded in 1961 through the merger of Sanger Brothers and A. Harris and Company. The chain was known for its high-end merchandise and excellent customer service.

During its peak in the 1970s and 80s, Sanger-Harris had more than 30 stores throughout Texas, including flagship locations in Dallas and Houston. It offered a wide range of products, including clothing, accessories, home goods, and electronics.

The chain was known for its innovative marketing strategies, including the use of celebrity endorsements, fashion shows, and exclusive promotions. It was also one of the first department store chains to offer a bridal registry.

Sanger-Harris remained a popular shopping destination for many years, but like many other department stores, it struggled in the face of changing consumer habits and increased competition from online retailers. In the 1990s, the company was acquired by Federated Department Stores and eventually rebranded as Macy's. Today, the Sanger-Harris name lives on through the Sanger-Harris Collection, a line of high-end housewares and furniture sold exclusively at Macy's.
