By 1974, all stores in the chain — which now consisted of 15 storefronts — were unified under the Famous Footwear banner. Ninety percent of the chain was purchased from founder Moldenhauer in this year by a leveraged buyout led by longtime employees Dave Orfan and Brian Cook, along with a group of outside investors. Orfan initially assumed the role of President with Cook Executive Vice President, a relationship which changed in 1979 when Cook assumed the mantle of the presidency.
By 1980 the midwestern chain consisted of 36 stores generating total annual sales of $30 million. The company became an attractive investment opportunity for the St. Louis-based Brown Shoe Company, which acquired the firm and immediately set about with plans for rapid expansion. By 1986 the chain consisted of 230 stores.
In 1990, Famous Footwear launched a 740,000-square-foot (69,000 m2) distribution center in Sun Prairie, Wisconsin, near Madison. This was followed by another 800,000-square-foot (74,000 m2) distribution center in Lebanon, Tennessee, constructed in 1993.Fueled by Brown Shoe Co. money, the chain had expanded to 722 stores in 44 states by the end of that year.
Prior to 1974, due to its discounting policy Famous Footwear was unable to purchase footwear from the two leading athletic shoe giants of the day, Adidas and Puma. Consumer demand for this emerging product category was enormous. In response, Famous Footwear opened up a number of little sporting goods shops called All Star Sports Centers, facilities which were directly promoted by regular Famous stores.

  1. Hey friend how are you hope you all fine I want tell you some interesting hope you like it. Would you believe it's possible to save more than 90 percent on your grocery bills? It takes measures many people would consider extreme, but while most of us just glance remorsefully at receipts from the grocery store -- accepting that the total came out so high yet again -- there are some who leave the supermarket with a skip in their step and a lot more money in their wallets. The secret to their success is coupons. Well, coupons, a little bit of planning and extra storage space! That's because buying in bulk usually goes hand-in-hand with extreme coupon use, so you can stock up when deals align to make products super cheap. Items don't go on sale every day, after all; you have to get products while the getting's good. So if you feel like saving some cash -- and you have some space in the garage or an extra-large pantry, plus some free time for the effort -- then here are some extreme coupon tips that even normal shoppers can get on board with.
