The Glik family believes there is no real secret to their success other than a belief in honesty, integrity, hard work and excellent customer service. More than 130 years ago, Joseph Glik sold merchandise from a horse drawn wagon in Northern Missouri and Iowa. A son, Morris, was born in Gallatin, Missouri in 1884 and shortly thereafter the family moved to St. Louis. Joseph became a clerk in a clothing store and in 1897 opened his own small menswear store on North Broadway in St. Louis. Over the years, Glik’s has been able to survive the tight retail environment. The answers are pretty much as one would expect: aggressive marketing, savvy buying and personal service. An example of this philosophy is when, in 1902, Joseph took a risk on the untapped market potential of the fast-growing industrial towns of Illinois, just across the river from St. Louis. The result was a 1,000 square foot store in the city of Madison, Illinois. Joseph’s son, Morris, having graduated from high school, was put in charge of the store. In 1925, Morris went a step further, and he turned the Madison operation into one of the area’s largest department stores. Glik’s reputation grew and families soon came from around the area to buy clothing on credit. When the Depression hit, Morris’ careful investments allowed him to continue to offer credit terms to hard- pressed customers. This enabled the company to survive the Depression. The postwar era brought new challenges for Glik’s. Morris’ widow, Elsie, ran the store for several years after her husband’s death in 1945. Their son Joe, back from the Navy, took over the business. Like his father before him, Joe took a gamble on a new retail strategy – one that anticipated the changing living habits of the customer base. It was in 1954 that Joe opened a Glik’s store in a strip center in nearby Granite City. The new junior department store was an instant success with its easy automobile accessibility, and Glik’s gave the area a foretaste of what a suburban clothing store could offer. In the process, it created a niche – bigger than a specialty store, more personal than a department store or a national chain – that the company continues to occupy today. From Madison and Granite City, Glik’s grew in the 1970s to a chain of seven stores, located in strip centers throughout the Metro East area of St. Louis. The last few decades have seen rapid growth, adding over 60 stores located in Missouri, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, South Dakota and North Dakota. Great people, great fashion and great towns, combined with new technology, have transformed these stores into an efficient organization. The corporate office and distribution center in Granite City, IL offers the most up-to-date technologi- cal tools available in the retail industry today. The Glik family is proud to celebrate over 115 years of retailing. We thank our associates past and present, vendors, communities, and most of all, our customers. Our commitment to you will always be our top priority! “My grandfather started the business out of a horse drawn wagon and today it is affording employment to over 360 individuals.

  • VANS Marketing Report
    Vans “Off The Wall” Marketing Plan Rajneet Sahota, Prinze Lorenzo, Surya Chaudhary, AJ Diallo, Michael Wang, Pauline Bayiha, Aneil Johal Tagline: Off The Wall ​ Chief Executive Officer: Steve Van Doren ​ Global Vice President of Marketing: Fara Howard ​ I. External and Internal Environment 1. Brief company history: On March 16th, 1966, brothers Paul and Jim Van Doren, along with other co founders, decided to open a company in Anaheim, California which they called Vans. As an executive at one of America’s largest shoe ​ manufacturers, Doren noticed that shoe manufacturers were making pennies per shoe sold, while retailers took home the bulk. With this information, Doren decided to set up his own company that made and sold ​ each shoe. In the early 1980s, after a few successful years in business, ​ Dorens suggested that Vans create shoes for other sports like basketball, running, and breakdancing. However, the expansion did not work and their costs got too high which resulted in them having to file for Bankruptcy.
