Kaufmann’s

Kaufmann’s was founded in Pittsburgh in 1871 as a men’s tailoring and ready-to-wear store by two brothers. Two more brothers joined a few years later. The store grew into a chain of nearly 60 stores in the East. The company was acquired a few times before Macy’s purchased and rebranded it in 2006. Sadly, many Macy’s stores, including the original Kaufmann’s flagship store, have since closed.
