Target Corporation, doing business as Target, is an American retailing company headquartered in Minneapolis, Minnesota. It is the second-largest discount retailer in the United States, behind Walmart.[6][7] The company is ranked at number 38 on the Fortune 500 as of 2012 Target Corporation competes directly against other discount retailers, mainly Walmart and Kmart. Since its founding, it has intended to differentiate its stores from its competitors by offering what it believes is more upscale, trendforward merchandise at lower costs, rather than the traditional concept of

focusing on low-priced goods. Douglas J. Dayton, one of the Dayton brothers, explained John Geisse's concept: "They offer high-quality merchandise at low margins, because they are cutting expenses. They would much rather do this than trumpet dramatic price cuts on cheap merchandise." As a result, Target stores tend to attract younger and more educated and affluent customers than Walmart, among other competitors. The median Target shopper is 41 years old, the youngest of all major discount retailers that Target competes directly against. Target Corporation is consistently ranked as one of the most philanthropic companies 2. Package: 4.04 L CTC plus ! Lack Benefits 3. No of Vacancies: N 4.
