Kohl’s logo and symbol, meaning, history, PNG
- Download PNG Kohl’s Logo PNG Like the majority of department store retailing chains, Kohl’s Corporation has always had a simple wordmark-based logo.
- Meaning and history The American retailer was originally a grocery store.
- Opened by an immigrant from Poland, Maxwell Kohl by name, the store appeared in one of the Milwaukee streets (Wisconsin) as early as in 1927.
- That day in September 1962 is considered to be the day when the company was born.
- As the business was not yet established at that time, they added the wordmark “Department Stores” below the company’s name so that customers could learn what exactly the company dealt with.
- 1946 – 1962 The original Kohl’s logo was introduced in 1946 and stayed with the depart stores chain for more than a decade.
- It was a simple yet powerful black and white badge with the custom lowercase wordmark in bold black letters with contours slightly narrowed set on a plain white background.
- There was nothing special or additional on the insignia, but the arched elements of the letters made the inscription unique and instantly recognizable.
- 1962 – 1979 The first Kohl’s logo was introduced at the same time as the department store opened.
- It was a wordmark-based logo consisting of the company’s name “Kohl’s” and the “Department Stores” in a slightly inclined serif font.
- 1979 – 1985 The customers saw the second version of the Kohl’s emblem in 1979.
- It did not feature any new elements, but the typeface changed.
- Yet, it has changed.
- The serious and legible extra-bold Helvetica feels secure.
