Nordstrom said Monday that it would be taken private after agreeing to be acquired by members of the Nordstrom family and a Mexican department store company. The Nordstrom family and El Puerto de Liverpool will purchase all outstanding common shares they don’t already own in a cash transaction valued at roughly $6.

Nordstrom has been family-owned since being founded in Seattle in 1901 by John W. Nordstrom, a Swedish immigrant.

The Nordstrom family teamed up with Mexican retailer Liverpool to clinch a $4 billion deal to take iconic department store chain Nordstrom private, six years after a similar attempt fell short. Nordstrom and rivals such as Macy's have become enticing takeover targets in recent years as sales have slowed and shares have slumped.
