FROM THE CLASSIC FEAR AD DEPT

THE STORY OF FRED MEYER'S PANT KINGDOM

Levi jeans were the absolute rage and Meier & Frank was the #1 seller of blue jeans. Fred Meyer wanted Levi's to sell in his stores. Meier & Frank had a tizzy and threatened to pull the Levi line if they stocked Fred Meyers. The story goes, Fred flew down to San Francisco and cut to the chase with delivering the single largest order to Levi Strauss ever! The Levi executives told Fred that having the brand in a grocery store would not be acceptable. Fred told him they wouldn't be in the grocery store. He would create a store within the store called PANT KINGDOM. They took the opening order paid in advance and the rest was history. Meier & Frank had to live with it.
