00:02H&M's expansion into the United States began in 1974 when the first store was opened in the
00:08country, but it wasn't until the early 2000s that the company started to gain traction.
00:12One of the reasons for this was the popularity of fast fashion at the time.
00:16Another factor that contributed to H&M's success in the U.S. was its marketing campaigns.
00:21H&M often featured trendy and provocative ad campaigns that resonated with American consumers.
00:26One of the most memorable campaigns was the 2006 Can You Get a In H&M campaign featuring
00:33supermodel Gisele Bundy. Today, H&M is one of the most popular clothing retailers in the United States.
00:39The company has more than 500 stores across the country and generates billions of dollars in
00:44revenue each year. In recent years though, H&M has faced some stiff competition from other fast
00:50fashion retailers like Zara and Forever 21. In addition to this, H&M has also had to deal with
00:56a number of public relations groups. In 2018, the company was accused of racism after one of its
01:01social media posts appeared to mock people with Down syndrome.
