Burton (retailer)

Burton is a large United Kingdom high street clothing retailer. The company was once a constituent of the FTSE 100 Index, but is now a trading name of Arcadia Group Brands Ltd, part of the Arcadia Group. There are over 400 stores in the UK and Republic of Ireland. It has also expanded to out of town sites since the 1980s, a notable example being at the Merry Hill Shopping Centre in the West Midlands, where it has had a store since November 1989.
==History==

The company was founded by Montague Burton in Chesterfield in 1904 under the name of ''The Cross-Tailoring Company''. It was first listed on the London Stock Exchange in 1929 by which time it had 400 stores, factories and mills.〔 In 1934, Burton's large factory in Leeds was visited by the Princess Royal.〔
After World War II Montague Burton was one of the suppliers of demob suits to the British government for demobilising servicemen, comprising jacket, trousers, waistcoat, shirt and underwear.〔 It has been speculated that this is the origin of the phrase "the full monty". In 1946 the Company acquired the ''Peter Robinson'' women's fashion chain.〔(Arcadia History )〕 By 1952, the year of Montague Burton's death, the company was the largest multiple tailor in the world.〔
Burton was the official clothing supplier to the England national football team for the 1966 FIFA World Cup, UEFA Euro 1996 and the 2002 FIFA World Cup championships.〔 In 1998 the company changed its name to Arcadia Group.
The Burton company archives are held at the West Yorkshire Archive Service in Leeds.〔(West Yorkshire Archive Service, Leeds )〕
