Cole Brothers was a department store located in Sheffield, UK
==Early History==
The Cole Brother John & Thomas opened a silk mercier and hosier at 4 Fargate Street, Sheffield in 1847.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Humble beginings - John Lewis Memory Store )〕 Their brother Skelton almost immediate joined them in the business which grew rapidly, purchasing stores along Fargate Street and round into Church Street. The business had grown so much that in 1869, a rebuild of the stores was commissioned with a new frontage and an extra two storeys.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Humble beginings - John Lewis Memory Store )〕 The business continued to expand with further stores added, and rebuilt to match the architecture of the store, and by 1898 the business was incorporated. However Skelton Cole did not see this achievement dying in 1896, while his brother John died in 1898.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Humble beginings - John Lewis Memory Store )〕
The business was continued to be run by the Cole family, with two sons of the brothers Thomas and Thomas Skelton taking over the reins.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Cole Brothers at the Turn of the Century )〕 By 1909, the business had started employing women, which was to be a benefit with the outbreak of World War One looming. The business had also grown to local prominence with locals regarding the area as Coles Corner, something that lives onto today.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Cole Brothers at the Turn of the Century )〕 Technology was at the forefront of the store, with delivery cans being added in 1911, while the first cash registers arrived in 1916. The store continued to grow with a further two storeys being added to the store in 1920, however in the same year the business was sold to Gordon Selfridge. The business transferred into his Selfridge Provincial Stores Group in 1927.
