CHICO'S Chico’s has come a long way since opening our very first store on Sanibel Island, Florida, more than 20 years ago. What started  as one small shop selling cotton sweaters and folk art has evolved  into the fastest growing women’s specialty apparel retailer in the country with over 490 locations nationwide.  Today, Chico’s carries everything from comfortable, everyday clot hing to elegant eveningwear. Chico’s private-label designs range from basic black pants and cotton tees, to specialty jackets in  one-of-a- kind prints and patterns. Customers love Chico’s for their  wrinkle- proof Travelers™ Collection and their extensive selection of  coordinat- ing accessories.  Chico’s is also known for their exceptional personal service. As  any of the thousands of loyal Chico’s customers can tell you, Chico’s is  a truly unique shopping experience. 5
