  • The Government-Department Stores (Retail) industry has a long history dating back to the 19th century. The first department store, Bon Marché, was opened in Paris in 1852, and it quickly became a model for other department stores around the world. In the United States, the first department store was opened in 1858 by Rowland Hussey Macy in New York City.

However, many department stores have adapted by offering online shopping and in-store experiences that cannot be replicated online.
