ABOUT US

Welcome to Baker

Cultivating Retail Innovation

The Jay H. Baker Retailing Center is an interdisciplinary industry research center championing the retail industry. We bring together a network of retail leaders, founders, faculty and students to discuss the opportunities and challenges that impact the retail world of today and tomorrow.

Promotion of retail is core to what we do. The Center was founded in 2002 through a generous gift from Wharton graduate class of ’56 and former President of Kohl’s, Jay Baker – “the merchant’s merchant.”

A small group of people, dressed in business attire, are engaged in a lively and cheerful conversation indoors. They appear to be in a professional or social event setting.
