About Sears Holdings Corporation
Sears Holding Corporation is based in Hoffman Estate, Illinois. This is a Corporation that came to be as a result of a merge up between two companies, Sears and Kmart. The company was founded in 2005. In 2004, Kmart Holding Corporation decided to acquire the Sears, Roebuck Company. However it decided to operate under both brands, Sears and Kmart. From a mutual agreement, the two corporations decided to merge up and form one corporation, the Sears Holdings Corporation. Even after the Corporations merged they still operated under the Kmart and Sears independent stores.
Sears decided to open a new store format, so in 2005 it opened the Sears essentials. Due to the partnership, some of the Kmart stores were converted into Sears Essentials. This new format was a combination of the Sears’s concept and Kmart format which was a strategy for the company to compete fairly with its rivals. Sear Holdings controls shares in other companies like it controls a 51% in the Sears Canada. There was a time they controlled 92% shares of the company. When they failed to acquire the remainder of the shares they ended up with 51% because Bill Ackman had bought the 17.3% stake in 2006 which prevented them from acquiring the whole company. They have 20% shares in Sears Mexico.
The corporation due to its success has added other products and services. They launched a site in 2008, servicelive.com that was designed to give the customers an opportunity to connect with their local contractors. In 2010, they still introduced a new service, Sears Automobile business that was targeting the automobile dealers
