Lord & Taylor was the oldest-surviving department store chain in the United States. The company operated full-line department stores from 1826 until it filed for bankruptcy in 2020. The following year, in 2021, it closed all its brick-and-mortar stores. Saadia Group acquired the Lord & Taylor intellectual property and relaunched the e-commerce website later that same year.

Samuel Lord (1803-1889) was a British-born American retail millionaire who founded Lord & Taylor. It was the oldest luxury department store in the United States.
