A luxury department store located in London that represents the UK. It is currently part of House of Fraser P.LC (Public Limited Company, established in 1941), the UK's largest department store and retail group. While most UK department stores started out selling clothing, Harrods began as a small grocery store purchased by London tea merchant H.D. Harrod in 1849. It expanded its product range to include stationery, medicines, and clothing, and in 1980 changed its name to Harrods Stores. Source: Heibonsha World Encyclopedia, 2nd Edition Information |
