Claires was founded in the 1960s with the merging of 2 fashion accessory retailers in Chicago, US, and by 1992 we had over 1,000 stores in the US. Fashion proves to have no borders, as our amazing growth has continued with stores in over 47 countries globally and continued growth internationally. Today, Claires has over 3,000 stores and we are the number 1 ear piercer in the world, piercing on average 3 million ears a year – fulfilling our mission to be the preferred global destination for fun fashion accessories. So take a moment to find out more about us. We are confident that you ll understand why we truly love what we do at Claires. We believe Claires represents a Girls Best Friend and a favorite shopping destination for teens, tweens, and kids. Claires target customer is a girl between 3-18 years old with a particular focus on a core demographic of girls between 10-14 years old. According to our estimates, we have over 95% brand awareness within this target demographic in our largest markets. Claires now has a presence in 47 countries through the 2,720 company operated Claires stores in North America, Europe and China, and 414 franchised stores in numerous other international geographies. Our Icing brand targets a young woman in the 18-35 year age group with a focus on our core 21-25 year olds who have recently entered the workforce. This customer is independent, fashion-conscious, and has enhanced spending ability. We believe that expansion of our Icing store base both in existing and new markets over time presents a significant opportunity to leverage our core merchandising, sourcing and marketing expertise to cater to a wider demographic.
We are a fashion lifestyle brand of big dreams, colorful confidence, and inspired design. Founded on Family, Fashion and Philanthropy, we believe that our employees and customers are the heart and soul of our brand and that giving back is the truest form of success. Fashion meets innovation in the design of our two state-of-the-art facilities based in the heart of Austin, Texas, and overflows into the design of our growing retail environment across the country. Since Kendra began this company in 2002, she has lived by three core values: Family, Fashion, and Philanthropy. She created a brand and a culture that puts family first, constantly pushes the boundaries of fashion and design, and authentically values giving back and making a difference in the community. Those three pillars have become the foundation of our culture, and set us apart from the rest. From a local to a national scale, if someone comes to us with a cause they care about, we will always have something to give. Philanthropy has become an integral part of the Kendra Scott company, and the relationships we have built with our customers and our communities as a result are invaluable. We are proud to say that in 2016 alone, our company gave back over $3.5MM and donated more than 75,000 pieces of jewelry to 3,500 local and national organizations. Every Kendra Scott piece is intricately and artfully designed at our state of the art studio in Austin, Texas. Kendra and her team created the Design Lab of their dreams complete with casting, 3D printing and an extensive product and material library. The design studio offers a unique space to create, innovate and be inspired.
