Few retailers operate at the scale of TJX. Through TJ Maxx, Marshalls, HomeGoods, Winners, TK Maxx and its other banners, the group runs more than 5,000 stores across the United States, Canada, Europe and Australia, supported by online platforms in the US and Europe.
The business is built on off-price retail. TJX sells apparel and home fashions at prices that offer shoppers recognisable brands at good value, a combination that underpins its appeal across very different markets.
Its sourcing model is a key driver. A large buying organisation and a wide network of vendors let TJX buy across multiple categories and regions, which keeps its stores stocked with a varied and changing mix of merchandise.
That changing mix matters. Because the merchandise is refreshed so often, shoppers are encouraged to visit regularly, and the experience of browsing in store is one that online retail finds hard to reproduce.
We believe this blend of value, scale and a constantly renewed offering gives TJX a competitive position that should prove durable.
