Kmart Kmart is an American big box department store chain headquartered in Hoffman Estates, Illinois, United States. The chain purchased Sears for $11 billion in 2005, forming a new corporation under the name Sears Holdings Corporation. The Kmart name was incorporated in 1916 while the first store didn't open its doors until 1962. At its peak in 2000, Kmart operated 2,171 stores including 105 Super Kmart Center locations. For the 2005 fiscal year under the new company, the Kmart store count was at 1,416 with only 55 Super Kmart Center locations. Currently, the chain is operating 624 stores with only 1 Super Kmart Center location remaining (Store #4939 in Warren, OH). This number is the amount of stores that still exist after the closings that took place during the first quarter of 2017.
