Mission JCPenney was founded in 1902 with one simple rule – to treat others as we would like to be treated. The Golden Rule was the name of our first store in Kemmerer, Wyoming, and it set the standard by which we have operated for more than 119 years. The name of our stores has evolved, but our focus on putting customers and associates at the heart of what we do remains unchanged.
