Early Landmark Engagement for One of
America's Premier Department Store Groups.
James Schaye, through Hudson Capital Partners, provided store closing and liquidation advisory services for Dayton Hudson department store locations — an early landmark engagement that helped establish the institutional framework for Eaton Hudson's large-scale retail disposition practice.
The Engagement
Dayton Hudson Corporation, one of America's premier department store and retail groups — operating under the Dayton's, Hudson's, and Marshall Field's nameplates before its eventual transition to the Target Corporation brand — engaged James Schaye and Hudson Capital Partners for store closing and liquidation advisory services. The engagement was among the formative experiences that shaped James Schaye's approach to large-scale department store dispositions and helped establish the institutional methodology that defines Eaton Hudson's advisory practice today.
This engagement was led by Eaton Hudson founder James Schaye through Hudson Capital Partners, the predecessor firm whose institutional track record is now represented under the Eaton Hudson banner.
Scope of Work
- Store closing and liquidation advisory for Dayton Hudson department store locations
- Department store merchandise disposition across apparel, home goods, and accessories categories

The Eaton Hudson Advantage
