Madewell

Each year the company issues 24 editions of the J. Crew catalog, distributing more than 80 million copies. In 2006, J.Crew introduced Madewell, "a modern-day interpretation of an American denim label founded in 1937." As of January 2011, the company operates 248 retail stores, including 217 J.Crew stores, 27 Madewell stores, and 9 crewcuts stores, as well as 85 J.Crew Factory outlet locations. Additionally, the company has 76 locations in Japan, which are operated under license by ITOCHU Corporation. J.Crew Group was owned by the Cinader family for most of its existence, but in October 1997 investment firm Texas Pacific Group Inc. purchased a majority stake in the firm. By the year 2000, Texas Pacific held an approximate 62 percent stake, a group of J.Crew managers held about 10 percent, and Emily Cinader Woods, the chairman of J.Crew and founder of the J.Crew brand along with her father, Arthur Cinader, held most of the remainder.
