History

Established in 1936, Michael Cohen, the grandfather of the current M&J Executive Vice President, made the decision to start a business in the middle of America’s Great Depression. The company started as a small linen store named Outlet Linen Store, located strategically at the heart of commerce activity for the garment industry on 6th Avenue also known as Avenue of the Americas. Within the store, customers were able to find a wide eclectic selection of tablecloths, handkerchiefs and ceramics piled high on merchandising tables.

In 1959, Mr. Cohen’s eldest son, Joel Cohen, joined the family business after completing his service in the US Army. Joel immediately began to modernize the business. He installed quality lighting, reorganized merchandise and implemented several store upgrades.

During that time, the linen store was a popular hangout for several neighborhood friends. Businessmen from around the area would often spend hours drinking coffee, smoking cigarettes and socializing about business and life in the store. One afternoon after a typical day of gathering and socializing in the store, a salesman left a roll of lace on the counter as collateral for a five-dollar loan. Soon after, several customers began asking about the lace. When the salesman returned a few days later to pay off his debt, Mr. Cohen said, “Forget the five dollars, get me more lace!” Thus began a new extended line of trimming products.

Shortly after seeing the heavy demand and sustainable business in trimming, Joel Cohen started to redirect the business away from linen to focus on providing the best selection of quality trimmings. The store was then renamed M&J Trimming. As the “J” in M&J, Joel continued to drive the business forward. He developed creative store window displays filled with decorative trims year-round. The displays end up being a big crowd-pleasing attraction. More importantly, M&J Trimming cultivated a solid reputation for great quality and inventory of trims, fringes, lace, ribbons, tassels, buttons, rhinestones, beads, buckles, clasps and more. M&J Trimming is now known for selecting the best products from all over the world.
