Company History
For close to forty years, Men’s Wearhouse has specialized in affordable suits and menswear for everyday people. The company was founded in 1973 by the iconic spokesman George Zimmer, who is famous for the advertising slogan “You’re going to like the way you look. I guarantee it.” The first Men’s Wearhouse store was opened in Houston, TX in 1973. Using stock from his father’s coat manufacturing business, George Zimmer and his college friends began selling suits and collecting the profits in their makeshift cash register, which consisted of a cigar box. Within one year, Zimmer open a second location, and a year after that the company launched their first television ad campaign. With 12 stores in Texas, the Men’s Warehouse expanded by building a flagship location in San Francisco. The company continued to grow by installing new stores across the Pacific Northwest, Midwest, and Southwest. In 1992, Men’s Warehouse went public on the New York Stock Exchange. By 1998, Men’s Warehouse had established itself as a nationwide chain with annual revenue of more than $1 billion. Today, the Men’s Warehouse also owns Big & Tall, K&G Fashion Superstore, and the Canadian chain Moores Clothing for Men.
