Bonton Holdings Inc. operating as Bonton (/bɒntɒn/)[1] was an American department store chain and group founded in 1898. It operated in Western New York, Pennsylvania, western Maryland, and throughout the Midwestern United States. The former York, Pennsylvania-based company BonTon filed for bankruptcy in February 2018 and sold the name to CSC Generation, which sold it to BrandX.com in 2021, operating an e-commerce site under the brand name. Along with Bergner's, Boston Store, Carson's, Elder-Beerman, Herberger's, and Younkers, the names of most of the defunct retail group's department store chains are owned by BrandX.
