Our History

In 1938, Rudolph Landau began selling work uniforms to service station and garage employees by driving from garage to garage to gain customers. As sales grew, Rudolph was able to move the business out of his Model A Ford and into a retail space located in the heart of Memphis’ medical center.

As the company slowly grew, Nat continually invested in employee development and innovation that helped the business thrive. In the early 1980s, Landau was the first manufacturer to introduce scrubs in fashion-focused colors, which created a new market for the healthcare industry. In the late 1980s, Landau created another groundbreaking approach for the healthcare industry by introducing print designs.

In 1992, the third generation of Landaus entered the family business and continued its expansion, including the acquisition of the Urbane and Chefwear brands. In 2022, Landau was acquired by Kindthread, which also owns White Cross, Chefwear and Scrubs & Beyond. Kindthread was created with a focus on healthcare professionals, which will ensure Landau’s trusted legacy well into the future.
