About Us

Doris and Don Fisher opened the first Gap store in 1969. The reason was simple. Don could not find a pair of jeans that fit. They never expected to transform retail. But they did. Guided by humility, compassion and a strong desire to win, the Fishers grew their company thoughtfully. Customer responded. Today, Gap Inc. is a leading international specialty retailer with six brands – Gap, Banana Republic, Old Navy, Athleta, INTERMIX and Hill City. Almost 3,700 stores and more than 135,000 employees. We are growing globally, and just within the last few years, we opened our first stores in China and Italy. We are expanding online shopping to customers, too. Today, customers in about 90 countries can buy our products. While many things have changed since 1969, the principle s on which we were founded have stayed the same: creativity, delivering results, doing what’s right and always thinking of our customer first. In September 2018, Gap Inc began publicizing Hill City, a men's athletic apparel brand that launched in October 2018
