About Target
Target runs a chain of general merchandise stores that stock everyday essentials alongside food, clothing, home goods, electronics and toys. Shoppers most often encounter the retailer through its long list of in-house labels, spanning apparel lines such as A New Day and Wild Fable, home brands like Threshold and Opalhouse, and grocery names including Good & Gather and Favorite Day, among many others carrying its own naming.
Much of what fills its shelves is sold under these proprietary brands rather than outside labels, covering categories from clothing and household basics to beauty, pantry staples and seasonal items. This mix lets the company offer goods across nearly every part of daily life to shoppers visiting its stores for general household and personal needs.
Target traces its start to George Draper Dayton, who founded the company in 1902, and it now operates out of Minneapolis, Minnesota. Its shares trade on the NYSE under the ticker TGT.
