Doris and Don Fisher opened the first Gap store in 1969. The reason was simple. Don couldn’t 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. Customers responded.

Today, Gap Inc. is a leading international specialty retailer with five brands – Gap, Banana Republic, Old Navy, Piperlime and Athleta – about 3,100 stores and 134,000 employees.
