Robinsons-May was an American department store chain founded in 1993 with the merger of J. W. Robinson's and May Company California. It retained the former May headquarters in Los Angeles, California, and operated in Southern California, Arizona, and Nevada. The holding company The May Department Stores Company was acquired by Federated Department Stores, and remaining Robinsons-May stores were converted to Bloomingdale's and Macy's, in 2005.
