New Generation Innovations

                                                  Innovation through technology :

In 1988, Target becomes the first mass merchandiser to introduce UPC scanning at all Target stores and Distribution Centers. The new technology contributes to the evolution of the in-store shopping experience through greater inventory management, increased automation, and most importantly, a shorter wait time at the check lane. Hence result is a more efficient and enjoyable shopping experience for guests and team members.

                                        A New Contender in the World of Racing:

Target Now open in 32 states, Target partners with Chip Ganassi to form Target Chip Ganassi Racing. In the years to come, the new racing partnership embodies all the best aspects of what the company represents — speed, excitement, a modern flair, trend setting and success.

                                                            Target offers credit:

In 1995 the first Target store credit card, known as the Target Guest Card was  launched. It's followed in 2001 by the Target Visa^® Credit Card, the first company credit card to be accepted at major retailers nationwide. Renamed REDcards in 2004, the portfolio of credit products expands to add the Target Check Card in 2007.

                                                           Target moves online:

Target launches Target.com, allowing guests to shop a wide assortment of fashionable, affordable merchandise from the comfort of their own home, and hence becomes the most popular online website throughout.
