摘要
1876年,w·l·道格拉斯鞋业公司在马萨诸塞州的布罗克顿成立,作为第一家建立自己的连锁零售商店的鞋业制造公司,取得了卓越的成功。然而,第一次世界大战后,该公司进入了漫长而沉闷的衰退,最终导致它搬到了另一个州,并最终卖给了另一家公司。最近与Arthur Million, Inc. (General Shoe Corporation的子公司)的合并标志着W. L. Douglas作为一家独立公司的结束。
The W. L. Douglas Shoe Company: Background of a Recent Merger
The W. L. Douglas Shoe Company, founded in Brockton, Massachusetts, in 1876, achieved an outstanding success as the first shoemanufacturing company to establish its own chain of retail stores. After World War I, however, the company entered a long and dreary decline which resulted finally in its removal to another state and its eventual sale to another company. This recent merger, with Arthur Million, Inc., a subsidiary of the General Shoe Corporation, marks the end of W. L. Douglas as an independent company.
