Titche-Goettinger (later known as Titche's) was a department store chain based in Dallas, Texas (United States). It was established in 1902 and was a major player in the Dallas retail market until its merger with Joske's, which was later absorbed by Dillard's.
The Titche-Goettinger Department Store, formed in 1902 by Max Goettinger and Edward Titche, [1] [2] [3] opened on the southeast corner of Elm and Murphy streets. [4] Two years later, they moved to the Wilson Building. [4] [2] In 1928, the company began construction on a new location between Main and Elm streets at St. Paul Street to house more merchandise, including ready-to-wear apparel. [5] [6]
In December 1928, before the new building was complete, Titche-Goettinger was sold to Hahn Department Stores. [7] Hahn would also purchase the San Antonio, Texas, retailer Joske's the following year. [8] The Great Depression affected the retail market during Hahn's ownership, changing the market. [9] [10] The store's competitive edge was largely lost to hometown rivals Neiman Marcus and Sanger-Harris. In 1935, Hahn Department Stores changed its name to Allied Stores Corporation. [9]
The department store expanded to the suburbs in the 1950s. [11] [12] Allied merged the Titche-Goettinger stores with Joske's in 1979, [12] which was eventually purchased by Dillard's in 1987. [13]
