In February 27, 1947 the first Sears in Mexico City opened, revolutionizing the traditional systems of commercialization and massive exhibition of merchandise, establishing fixed and competitive price policies, instead of implementing the traditional bargaining system.
From 1955 to 1993, Sears opened stores throughout Mexico.
On April 2, 1997 Sears, Roebuck and Company, now owned by Sears Holdings Corporation, formed a strategic alliance with Grupo Carso, owned by Mexican businessman Carlos Slim Helú, through which Sears agrees to sell 60% of its share of Sears Mexico to Grupo Carso.
