From wikipedia:
J.Crew Group Inc. (NYSE: JCG) is an American clothing and accessories retailer based in New York, New York. Founded in 1983 by Arthur Cinader with the launch of its mail order catalog, the company expanded into brick and mortar retailing in 1989 with its first store at the South Street Seaport in New York City. The company’s corporate headquarters is located at 770 Broadway at E. 9th street in the Greenwich Village neighborhood of Manhattan. As of May 2008, the company operates 198 retail stores and 65 outlet stores in the United States.
The company’s website, which was launched in 1996, features online-only products, as well as catalog and retail items. The company operates two distribution centers in the Southern United States, in Lynchburg, Virginia and Asheville, North Carolina. The former doubles as its U.S. call center.[citation needed] Online shipping is also offered to Canada and Japan.
In 2009, the company experienced a surge in popularity because of First Lady of the United States Michelle Obama, who wore outfits from the retailer in several high-profile appearances, including an interview on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno in which she mentioned the retailer.
