1. woolworth

   Woolworth, also known as F.W. Woolworth Co. or Woolworth's, was a retail company founded in the United States in 1879. It was one of the original pioneers of the five-and-dime store format, offering a wide range of merchandise at low prices. The stores were known for their lunch counters and were a popular place for people to gather and socialize. The company expanded globally but faced a decline in the late 20th century due to increased competition. The original U.S. chain went out of business in 1997, though the Woolworths Group continues to operate in other countries.
