AJ Wright Background InformationAJ Wright was a chain of about 130 American retail/outlet stores established in 1998 and owned by TJX Companies. Like its sister company T.J. Maxx, AJ Wright sold clothing, domestics, giftware, footwear, accessories, and fragrances at prices between twenty and seventy percent below regular prices. AJ Wright differed from other TJX chains by refreshing its merchandise on a regular basis. For most stores, new shipments arrived every weekday. In early 2011, TJX closed the chain's remaining stores and converted some stores to other TJX brands.
Although moderate-income families were AJWright's main target market, other consumer groups were drawn by the company's recent expansion.The company's community service strategy centered on monetary donations to the Boys & Girls Clubs of America and other affiliates.
