Description: **Kmart** is an American retail chain that was founded in **1899** as **S.S. Kresge Company** and rebranded as Kmart in **1962**. It became one of the largest discount department store chains in the U.S., known for its **Blue Light Specials** and wide range of affordable merchandise. At its peak in the 1990s, Kmart operated thousands of stores nationwide. However, competition from Walmart, Target, and online retailers led to a steady decline. Kmart filed for **bankruptcy in 2002** and later merged with **Sears** in 2005. Despite efforts to revitalize the brand, most Kmart stores have closed, and only a few remain open today.
