- Description: By way of Camelot, Trans World Entertainment has set its sight on the crown. Trans World's 1999 purchase of Camelot Music Holdings rocketed it to the top of the US music retailer hierarchy. The firm sells CDs, DVDs, cassettes, videos, and related items through nearly 900 stores (about 75% of them in malls) in 46 states. Its music chains include Camelot Music, Record Town, The Wall, Coconuts, Strawberries, and Spec's Music. The company sells videos through Saturday Matinee and rents them through Movies Plus. Founder Bob Higgins and his family own about 30% of Trans World Entertainment.
