CHAPTER 1
A. Introduction
● Founded: 1948 by Charles Lazarus in Washington, D.C.
● Industry: Retail (specializing in toys, games, and juvenile products).
● Headquarters: Wayne, New Jersey, USA.
● Global Presence: Operates in several countries, with stores in North America, Asia,
and Europe.
● Iconic Products: Toys, games, baby products, and educational items.
● Brand Mascot: Geoffrey the Giraffe, a beloved mascot since the 1950s.
● Bankruptcy: Filed for bankruptcy in 2017 and closed many stores in 2018 due to
financial struggles.
● Ownership: Acquired by various investment firms over time, including Bain Capital
and KKR.
● Challenges: Intense competition from online retailers like Amazon and big-box stores
like Walmart.
● Recent Efforts: Focus on e-commerce, revitalizing the brand with new store formats
and partnerships.
B. History
● In April 1948, Charles P. Lazarus founded a baby-furniture retailer, Children's
Bargain Town, in Washington, D.C.
● The focus of the store changed in June 1957, and the first Toys "R" Us, dedicated
exclusively to toys rather than furniture, was opened by Lazarus in Rockville,
Maryland.
● In 2014, Toys "R" Us announced its "TRU Transformation" strategy, which
concentrated on efforts to fix foundational issues affecting future growth, including
making stores less cluttered, improving the customer experience, clearer pricing
strategies and promotions, and tighter integration of its retail and online businesses.
● In 2015, the company launched the first of a new concept store called the "Toy Lab"
in Freehold, New Jersey. The new layout provided more space for interactive exhibits
and areas to play with new toys before purchase.
● On September 18, 2017, Toys "R" Us, Inc. filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, stating
the move would give it flexibility to deal with $5 billion in long-term debt by
borrowing $2 billion so it could pay suppliers for the upcoming holiday season and
invest in improving current operations.
● The company has not had an annual profit since 2013. It reported a net loss of
US$164 million in the quarter ending April 29, 2017.
● In January 2018, the company announced it would liquidate and close up to 182 of
its stores in the U.S. as part of its restructuring, as well as convert up to 12 stores into
co-branded Toys "R" Us and Babies "R" Us stores.
● On June 29, 2018, Toys "R" Us permanently closed all of its remaining U.S.
locations, after 70 years of operations.
