Throughout the month of October, the 110th Boscov’s Anniversary Event will celebrate the business’ core principles of honest value, customer service and involvement in the community through a collection of special events, bargains and giveaways.

“Today, Boscov’s serves communities with 50 stores in nine states, but our story humbly began 110 years ago, and I’m proud to say that the core principles established by my grandfather and carried on by Albert continue to guide us today,” said Jim Boscov, chairman and CEO of Boscov’s. “During the next few weeks, I’m excited to share some of the family history of how one man’s dream grew to become the largest family-owned department store in America.”
