==History==
The first P.C. Richard opened on September 26, 1909 in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.pcrichard.com/our-company/history )〕 This particular store sold hardware and was run by Peter Christian Richard, an immigrant from the Netherlands. The first electric appliance the store sold was an electric iron. His son, Alfred J. Richard, would spend all of his time helping his father, as he quit school at the age of fourteen for the sake of the store. Within time, A.J. would become the head of the store, and would prove to be highly successful in persuading people to buy appliances. As the years progressed, his sons would aid him with the business, as they expanded to other locations. To this day, the chain is still run by the Richard family, as A.J. himself would serve as chairman well into his 90's. On December 28, 2004, A.J. Richard died at the age of 95.
