We strive to provide an exceptional working atmosphere that will foster both personal and professional growth for the associates.  We recognize that the consumer is our boss, and our goal is to provide them with outstanding values and a quality shopping environment.  We seek to accomplish this by using a teamwork approach with our suppliers, landlords, lenders and associates.  Our belief is that working together toward a common goal results in a synergistic union greater than the sum of individual efforts.

We will operate our business in a moral manner consistent with the laws of government.  We must be good stewards – we must work on a daily basis to improve our professionalism, service, stores, properties, and our industries.  While our work is vitally important, it is just a portion of a well-rounded life that includes family, friends, and faith.

These principles, coupled with a sound business doctrine, will provide for an outstanding future and strong growth for our companies into the next century.
