Black Friday History

Black Friday Origins

This shopping event has its roots in the US in the 1930s, with the first “Black Friday” held in 1932. However, the name “Black Friday” wasn’t introduced until the 1960s. As the end of November is the start of the Christmas season, offering massive sales became a great way to clear old stock and prepare for the holiday shopping season. At the time, most bookkeeping was done by hand, with retailers using pen and ink. Due to the huge volume of sales and revenue generated during this shopping event, red ink – used to denote losses – was replaced by black ink, a sign of a positive balance sheet.

Retailers looked forward to their “Black Friday” balances all year, and the name stuck. Over the years, this tradition has developed into a huge sales event, with bigger and better discounts being offered every year.
