The retail industry is practically in Carl Kirkland's blood. The co-founder was raised in his family's clothing store in Union City, TN. At a young age, he was put in charge of the Boy Scout department and had his first hands-on experience merchandising. In 1966, Carl opened a franchised gift shop in Old Hickory Mall in Jackson, TN where he perfected his ability to find and merchandise stylish items at even more stylish prices. At about the same time, Carl's cousin, Robert Kirkland, did the same in Nashville, TN. Both men found success with their down-to-earth business model: offer customers trendy items at great prices. Then, keep new and unique products flowing into the store to please the customer with fresh ideas for her home. In the late 1970's the two men began traveling abroad to find one-of-a-kind items that weren't being sold in other decor and gift shops. During the years to come, Kirkland's evolved from a gift shop to a home decor retailer and moved away from being a mall-based operation. For most retailers this is a tough transition, but Kirkland's never strayed from the founders' mission to offer the latest styles at a great price, which has led to more than 40 years of success in the home decor and gift market. In 2005, Kirkland's detached from its mall roots and transitioned more than 200 stores out of their mall locations and into more accessible shopping centers. This has allowed Kirkland's to expand the size and mix of merchandise, making it easier for customers to purchase larger items for their homes, like lounges, couches, and vanity sets. WHO WE ARE TODAY In the words of Carl Kirkland, "The Kirkland's store you shop today has the same focus as the Kirkland's you began shopping over 49 years ago: great style and great value, together with an ability to surprise and delight in home decor and gifts." You can still expect to find treasures for your home, whether you visit Kirkland's online or in-store. The founders of Kirkland's established more than a successful business when they brought Kirkland's to life; they established a company that helps us express who we are, one inspirational item at a time, which is a vision that Kirkland's family of employees have helped make a reality for the past 40 plus years. With new stores opening every month, you can look forward to having a Kirkland's near you!
