Woolworth still operates abroad, outside the states. Big in Australia I think.

The Aussies stole the name, got away with it and were much smarter and more active in spotting and applying the new trends in marketing. Woolworth’s British division has gone out of business, but the German division spun itself off and is doing alright. The original Woolworth’s company lives on as Foot Locker (of all things).
