  1. Chico’s Then and Now NOW: In December 2011, Chico’s FAS broke ground on a 146,000 square foot office building at its National Store Support Center in Ft. Myers, FL. The new building is expected to be complete in January 2013. The first three departments to move into the new building will be Technology, Human Resources and E-Commerce. The new building provides additional growth space for all brand and support positions at Chico’s National Store Support Center. • THEN: “In 1983, Marvin and Helene Gralnick opened the first Chico's at Periwinkle Place on Sanibel Island, Florida. Transforming an old 800 square foot tobacco shop, Marvin built counters, shelves, and cubbyholes while Helene designed the Chico's logo. They named the store after Helene's best friend's bilingual parrot, Chico, and began selling specialty folk art products from Mexico. That is how Chico's Folk Art Specialties was born!” (Chico’s website)
