At Michaels Stores, Inc., creativity is at the center of everything we do. We’re the world’s largest specialty retailer of arts, crafts, framing, floral, wall décor, and seasonal merchandise for the hobbyist and do-it-yourself home decorator. Since 1984, we’ve made an art of pursuing a unique purpose – To Inspire Creativity and Fun! Providing crafters of all ages with the fullest range of quality products, we’ve discovered a design for continual growth, one that is inspired from within.
Beginning with just 16 locations, Michaels has expanded to over 920 retail stores that span the whole of North America, from Miami, Florida to Vancouver, British Columbia. With over 40,000 specialty items, the Michaels brand has rapidly become the first choice in crafts and creative supplies. Additional subsidiaries include 166 Aaron Brothers stores, 11 Recollections stores and four Star Wholesale operations to further our scope of product offerings.
In 2006, Michaels went to the next level, with the $6 billion dollar merger with the private investment firms, Bain Capital Partners LLC and The Blackstone Group. Expanding by nearly 50 new stores each year, Michaels sustains an average annual sales and earnings growth of 11.4%, and 22.9%, respectively.
For our dedicated managers and associates, this means unprecedented opportunities for creativity in their own lives and the chance to design a rewarding career unlike any other.
