| dbo:abstract | The Bargain! Shop Holdings, Inc., also known as TB!S, is a Canadian discount variety store chain operating in all Anglophone provinces in Canada. The Bargain! Shop originated as a closeout store division of Woolworth Canada, developed out of some of the bankrupt assets of Bargain Harold's in 1991. The chain averaged 10,000 square feet (930 m2) and grew into 90 stores within just a year of its establishment. In late 1993, in order to try to make the Woolworth variety stores profitable in Canada, 101 of 123 Woolworth stores were converted to The Bargain! Shop, therefore bringing the total number of stores to 194. Some of the larger Woolco stores were also converted to The Bargain! Shop. In late 1999, in a rush to try to pay the debt on time, Venator Group Inc. closed 109 stores (including all stores in the province of Quebec) and sold the rest of The Bargain! Shop chain to a Canadian investment company. However, the closures only reduced sales from 259milliontoabout259 million to about 259milliontoabout100 million. In 2008, it was announced that The Bargain! Shop had acquired 93 of the former SAAN locations. They are mostly located in Atlantic Canada and Ontario.[1] In September 2012, The Bargain! Shop began re-branding their stores to Red Apple in most towns. (en) The Bargain! Shop Holdings, Inc. , ook wel bekend als TB!S, is een discountwinkelketen die actief is in alle Engelstalige provincies van Canada. The Bargain! Shop is ontstaan als een uitverkoop-winkel van Woolworth Canada. Het ontstond in 1991 uit de failliete boedel van Bargain Harold's. De keten met winkels die gemiddeld 930 m² groot zijn, groeide binnen een jaar na de oprichting uit tot 90 winkels. In een poging om de Woolworth-winkels in Canada winstgevend te maken, werden eind 1993 101 van de 123 Woolworth-winkels omgebouwd tot The Bargain! Shop, waarmee het totaal aantal winkels op 194 kwam. Sommige van de grotere Woolco-winkels werden ook omgebouwd tot The Bargain! Winkel. Eind 1999 sloot Venator Group Inc. 109 winkels (waaronder alle winkels in de provincie Quebec), onder tijdsdruk om schulden tijdig af te lossen en verkocht de resterende filialen van The Bargain! Shop aan een Canadese investeringsmaatschappij. Door de sluitingen daalde de omzet van $ 259 miljoen tot ongeveer $ 100 miljoen. In 2008 werd aangekondigd dat The Bargain! Shop 93 van de voormalige -warenhuislocaties had verworven. Deze locaties bevonden zich met name in Atlantisch Canada en Ontario. In september 2012 begon The Bargain! Shop met het omdopen van zijn winkels in Red Apple in de meeste steden. (nl) |
