Gabriel Brothers Information

The Gabes style of merchandising actually dates back to the 1920s, when Lebanese immigrant Z.G. Gabriel peddled merchandise in the tiny coal towns scattered throughout Fayette County, Pennsylvania. His sons, James and Arthur Gabriel, became the founders of what has grown into a chain of more than 100 stores operating in 11 states (including the Rugged Wearhouse, our sister chain – for information, see www.ruggedwearhouse.com). Gabes is a privately owned company headquartered in Morgantown, West Virginia. Each Gabes store averages 50,000 square feet of selling space. The deep-discount/extraordinary-customer-value proposition has allowed Gabes to continue to grow and look for new expansion opportunities
