The chain, which began in Hattiesburg, Mississippi over 30 years ago, once claimed to be the largest buyer of insurance claims in the U.S. In 2022, it reported saving 60m items from landfills through store sales. Many of the company’s creditors were also its suppliers. Among its list of top creditors is Target, Amazon, Macy’s-Bloomingdale, Nordstrom, Lowe’s, Home Depot, Academy Sports, Dick’s Sporting Goods, and Staples.
