Richman Brothers was a retail men's clothing chain in the United States. It was a subsidiary of the F. W. Woolworth Company.
Richman was founded in Ohio in 1853. It came to be known as a menâÂÂs fine clothing store. Though initially the stores would sell only menâÂÂs suits, coats, and hats, during the last years of its existence it also sold womenâÂÂs clothing. There were several stores across the United States, including Nebraska, Indiana, and Wisconsin.
The company allowed its workers to purchase stock below market price, and provided funds for supporting the staff during downturns. As a result of their worker-friendly policies they had little labor trouble during the Depression.
Richman closed in the early 1990s.
