HARRODS

Harrods has been the most famous shoe in the UK for over a hundred years and today it is the third most popular tourist attraction in London (after Buckingham Palace and the Houses of Parliament). It is the largest department store in the world and sells over 1.2 million different items.

The Harrods story begin in 1849, when a local fruit and vegetable seller called Hanry Charles Harrod bought a small shop in Knightsbridge, London. At first, the shop had only one room and sold only a few items of food, but after a few years it have expended and started to sell others as well. The store’s motto is ‘Everything for Everyone Everywhere’ and over the last 150 years, Harrods has selled many unusual items, including luxury cars, aeroplanes and various exotic animals. In 1967, King Zog Albania bought an elephant from Harrods as a gift for the president of the United States.

Henry Charles Harrod died in 1885 and since then the shop has had a number of different owners. The current owner, Egyptian businessman Mohammed al-Fayed, bought the shop in 1985.
