Job description / Role
The Brand:
Justice is the new name for Limited Too, the just-for-girls specialist retailer catering to tweens ages 7 to 14. With looks girls love, Justice offers better selection and a new in-store environment for an exciting shopping experience.
In August 2008, Tween Brands, the parent company of the Limited Too and Justice brands and the largest premier tween specialty retailer in the world, announced a transition to a single brand. A fresh, new Justice launched in February of 2009, combining the best of Limited Too and the best of Justice for a tween shopping experience second to none.
The fashion-conscious tween girl will find moderately-priced lifestyle and apparel items, accessories and an inspiring brand experience at Justice, which recognizes that while today's girls are more fashion-conscious, mom is more price-conscious. Just for tweens, Justice offers the perfect balance of hottest fashion and modest pricing in a girl-friendly environment where outgoing sales associates assist girls in expressing their individuality and self-confidence through fashion.
Over 900 stores are located throughout the United States, Puerto Rico, Europe and the Middle East. In partnership with Tween Brands, Alshaya operates the 32 Justice stores in the Middle East, located in Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait and Jordan.
Alshaya debuted Limited Too in Sharjah, United Arab Emirates in 2004. Since then, the brand has grown in popularity with fashion-loving young girls across the Middle East. Now, with Justice, cutting-edge tween fashionistas will be happy to find an exclusive line of chic Limited Too clothing in select stores, as well as a fresh, new tween destination designed just for them.
