Some companies have the mission of helping their clients do more.


yes they offer cheap solutions that solve clients problems. They are doing good for their clients. When a company can build cheap housing they are doing good. When IKEA figured out that it's much cheaper to assemble furniture in your house vs transport everything ready to use they helped lot's of people in the world. ZARA helped millions of people to have accessible fashion clothes.


We recently bought TJX for our clients and the case is this:

  1. Strong business model: TJX is a leading off-price retailer, which means it buys products from a variety of sources and sells them at discounted prices. This business model allows the company to offer a wide range of products at competitive prices, which has helped it attract and retain a large customer base.

  2. Wide selection of products: TJX has a diverse selection of products, including clothing, home goods, and other items. This variety of products helps the company appeal to a wide range of customers and increases the chances that customers will find something they want to buy.

  3. Strong brand recognition: TJX has a number of well-known retail chains, including T.J. Maxx, Marshalls, and HomeGoods, which have strong brand recognition and customer loyalty. This has helped the company generate strong sales and customer loyalty over the years.

  4. Operational efficiency: TJX has a strong focus on operational efficiency, which has helped the company keep costs under control and maintain strong profitability. The company has a streamlined supply chain and uses data analytics to make informed business decisions.

  5. Adaptability: TJX has shown a ability to adapt to changing consumer trends and market conditions. The company has a history of successfully adjusting its product mix and merchandising strategies to meet the changing needs of its customers.

They don't have factories
They don't have to sell their product
Apparently they are the biggest in this off price retailing
They are good at buying whatever is available
If there is a recession their business improves
They do good for their clients

we hope it's the case as Benjamin Franklin said
