  • 亞倫·蒙哥馬利·沃德(英語: 1843年2月17日-1913年12月7日)是一位總部設在芝加哥的美國企業家,他幸運的利用郵購零售商品賣給一般鄉村顧客而發了大財。1872年,他創立了在全國知名的。 沃德是一個推銷乾貨的年輕旅行推銷員,他關心許多中西部美國鄉村的困境,他認為許多小城鎮零售商收費貴又服務差,但又不得不依賴他們購買一般商品。於是沃德在1872年開設了他的第一家郵購公司。通過大量使用以芝加哥為中心的鐵路網,以及將他的業務與非營利性畜牧業者(Grangers)聯繫起來,沃德為鄉村客戶提供了比一般城鎮更大的庫存量,價格也更為低廉。不同於當地的鄉村商人,沃德不提供商品議價及信用交易。他的免費郵購目錄以最現代化的方法印製,並廣泛郵寄給客戶,讓他們可以看到消費商品的圖片,並讓顧客可以了解他們的需求。後來,沃德使用了郵局的鄉村免費送貨服務(ps. 他曾在1906年遊說出台包裹郵政系統)。20世紀初是郵購的鼎盛時期,沃德伴隨著他的競爭對手西爾斯·羅巴克公司成為了美國傳統。 沃德一直被譽為伊利諾州芝加哥格蘭特公園的保護者。 (zh)
