About Ross Stores Inc

Ross Stores, Inc. runs off-price retail chains in the United States, selling brand-name and designer apparel, accessories, footwear, and home goods at prices below those of conventional department and specialty stores. Its merchandise is sourced opportunistically from manufacturer overruns, canceled orders, and closeouts, and inventory turns over frequently, so selection varies by store and week. The company operates two chains: Ross Dress for Less, its larger banner, aimed broadly at middle-income shoppers; and dd's DISCOUNTS, which targets households with more moderate incomes. Founded in 1957 and headquartered in Dublin, California, Ross Stores trades on the Nasdaq under the ticker ROST.
