The first Dash boutique was opened in Calabasas, California in 2006. The original store was subsequently relocated to West Hollywood in 2012.[2] The retail stores have appeared on reality television series about the Kardashian family, Keeping Up with the Kardashians, which premiered in 2007 on the E! cable network.[3][4] Kim Kardashian has disclosed that she initially wanted Keeping Up with the Kardashians to focus more on their stores in order to bring people's attention and later said that she "didn't think it would turn into what it turned into."[5] The second store was opened in Miami Beach, Florida on May 20, 2009.[6]

The third store was opened on November 3, 2010, in the SoHo district of Manhattan, New York City.[3] In November 2010, TMZ reported that the store maintained to bring in an average gross of $50,000 every day since its opening date; on Black Friday the store brought in over $100,000.[7] The store closed in December 2016 due to high rent.[8]

In the summer of 2014, the sisters opened a pop-up retail store in Southampton, New York, which was featured in Kourtney and Khloé Take The Hamptons, a spin-off of Keeping up with the Kardashians.[9]

Closure
