諾德龍 (Nordstrom)是美國高檔連鎖百貨店。諾德斯特龍 (Nordstrom) 經營的產品包括服裝、飾品、包包、珠寶、化妝品、香水、家居用品等。諾德斯特龍 (Nordstrom) 從西雅圖的家鞋店起步,到現在已發展成為遍布美國的時尚百貨店,并且發展勁頭迅猛,店數不斷增加,也不斷推出新的服務。
諾德斯特龍 (Nordstrom) 創立于1901年。它的家店鋪位于美國西雅圖,當時的店名叫華林·諾德斯特龍鞋店,以創始人卡爾·華林和約翰·諾德斯特龍的名字命名,營業面積只有20平方英尺,以銷售鞋子為主要業務,并為顧客提供修鞋服務。到1923年,在西雅圖東北部有了二家分店。1928年,由于兩個創始人的合作關系越來越糟,經過協商,他們分別將各自的股份都賣給了諾德斯特龍 (Nordstrom) 的三個兒子。1930年8月,華林·諾德斯特龍鞋店正式更名為諾德斯特龍 (Nordstrom) 鞋店。
1963年,諾德斯特龍 (Nordstrom) 購買了西雅圖的貝斯特服裝店,就此開始經營女士服裝、飾品。這舉措使諾德斯特龍 (Nordstrom) 從原本經營單品類 (鞋) 的專業店零售商轉變為多品類經營的零售商,并由此開始了向品類更豐富、更寬泛的百貨商店轉型。1966年諾德斯特龍 (Nordstrom) 開始經營男裝和童裝,商品品類大大豐富。
1971年諾德斯特龍 (Nordstrom) 公司正式掛牌上市,到1973年其銷售額超過1億美元,成為美國西海岸大的服裝專業店,同年將公司正式更名為諾德斯特龍 (Nordstrom) 股份有限公司。
