Company history
Company name: James Howell & Co
Dates in business: 1865-1909
Type of business: department store retailers
Type of company: Private Company
Locations:
Stuart Hall, Hayes, Cardiff, Wales
St. Mary Street, Cardiff, Wales
Wharton Street, Cardiff, Wales
Trinity Street, Cardiff, Wales
On 21 October 1865, James Howell opened his drapery shop in a building called Stuart Hall, in the Hayes, Cardiff, Wales. Howell had previously been apprenticed to a draper in Fishguard, Wales, and other traders in Newport, Wales and London, England. After a number of unsuccessful ventures, he settled in Cardiff to establish his own business. The business was a success, and in August 1867 Howell moved to larger premises in 13 St Mary Street, adding new departments for carpets, furnishings, millinery goods and funeral services at 12 St Mary Street in 1869. The business continued to expand and during the following decade a furniture ware house was acquired in Wharton Street, Cardiff and further shops added in St Mary Street. By 1883, the shop occupied 9-14 St Mary Street and had acquired Biggs Brewery to the rear, fronting Trinity Street. The shop then continued to expand into Trinity Street where new premises were secured to house the furniture departments.
By 1892, the shop had grown to 36,800 square feet and traded under the name James Howell & Co. In the 1890s, Howell acquired more premises in Wharton Street and in Charles Street, Cardiff, and by 1905 employed over 400 staff.
On the death of James Howell in 1909, the ownership of the store passed to his eleven children, with the company becoming a private limited company, James Howell & Co Ltd.
Further extensions were added throughout the 1930s, 1950s and 1960s, causing the building to show the architectural trends of the Late Victorian era to the Modernism of the 1960s.
Howells Department Store was originally a family-run business, owned and managed by the family of James Howell. In the 1950s, the store was sold to Welsh banker Sir Julian Hodge, who subsequently sold the store to Mohammed Al-Fayed, owner of the House of Fraser chain, meaning the store ceased to be an independent department store. The store is still owned by House of Fraser.
