MAC cosmetics can be found at department stores worldwide such as Belk, Nordstrom, Macy's, Bloomingdale's and Dillard's, as well as MAC Stores. Nordstrom was the first department store in the United States to sell the product exclusively and was significant in helping the company establish a resounding financial success in the US. After a four year contract was up, MAC began expanding to other retail stores and vigorously began opening industry stores.
