The TJX Companies, Inc., the leading off-price retailer of apparel and home fashions in the U.S. and worldwide, was ranked 87th in the 2022 Fortune 500 company listings.

TJX invests a lot of time and money in training their buyers into becoming “intelligent risk takers,” as former CEO and current board chairwoman Carol Meyrowitz put it in Harvard Business Review. “Buyers must thoroughly understand consumer and fashion trends and the right value for every product we sell,” she said.
