| The
Zappos Story
Zappos.com was founded in June 1999 following a less than successful trip to
a local shoe store. With brick and mortar stores limited by the size of their
stock rooms, shoppers can only choose from a handful of styles the store buyer
chooses from each brand (and pray that their size is in stock). Zappos.com decided
that offering customers a complete selection of styles from each brand (in every
size, width, and color) would make the shoe shopping experience a much more pleasurable
one. Thus, Zappos.com was born!
To date,
Zappos.com has attained a top 50 internet retailer rating
(according to Internet Retailer Magazine) and maintains one
of the highest BizRate ratings in the industry. |
