The well-known retail division of the American clothing and home goods corporation TJX Companies is called TK Maxx. The business was started by Bernard Cammarata in 1994, and it is based in Watford, England. In the UK, Australia, Ireland, Germany, Poland, Austria, and the Netherlands, the brand runs a sizable number of outlets. As of May 2020, the brand had 629 locations in Europe and 56 in Australia after opening its first international store in Bristol, UK, in 1994. The company sells a wide variety of goods, including apparel, footwear, bedding, home goods, furniture, and gift items.

The retail environment in the UK has been significantly impacted by TK Maxx. The company started concentrating on remodelling or moving older inner-city stores in 2007, which resulted in the construction of Maxx Maxx, which changed from a budget-friendly reputation to a huge department store format with a broader selection of products. The company has also participated in several charitable endeavours, such as the UK Comic Relief, where it served as the only vendor of Red Nose Day t-shirts and significantly increased donations to the cause. In 2008, TK Maxx started charging for throwaway carrier bags and donated the money to the Woodland Trust. As a result, 30,000 new trees were planted nearby Elmstead Market in Essex.
