Target

Target is home to the eighth-largest retail chain in the U.S., with over 350,000 employees in the U.S. and abroad. And with more than 1,900 locations in all 50 states and Washington, D.C., 75% of the U.S. population lives within 10 miles of a Target store, known for selling a variety of food, household goods, clothing, and electronics. The retailer saw its business climb significantly in 2020, when Americans flocked to discount stores like Target to stock up on essentials like toilet paper and hand sanitizer. In 2021, the company has seen that growth continue as people’s spending shifted away from emergency stockpiling to a focus on more fun and more normal consumer behavior.
