 <p>
  In 2002, AKIRA opened the doors to its first women's clothing boutique in Chicago. Since then, the company has extended its reach to 30+ stores across the United States, as well as a thriving eCommerce business (shopAKIRA.com.) AKIRA is extremely well-poised for sustained growth as we continue to build a nationally recognized brand.
 </p>
 <p>
  AKIRA&rsquo;s culture has one very large, distinct difference from other fast-fashion competitors: Other-Worldly Customer Service and Fanatical, Obsessive Attention to the consumer&rsquo;s needs and desires. The core principle for all employees at AKIRA is to
  <em>
   Act and Think Like an Owner
  </em>
  , and this belief can be reflected across all areas of the company.
