Harrods is a world-renowned luxury department store in London, founded in 1849 by Charles Henry Harrod. Originally a small grocery shop in East London, it moved to its iconic Knightsbridge location and expanded into a prestigious retail destination.
Harrods offers high-end fashion, beauty, jewellery, and homeware, along with fine dining experiences. Known for its opulent interiors and exceptional customer service, it attracts shoppers from around the world. The department store was acquired by House of Fraser in 1959, which in turn was purchased by the Fayed brothers in 1985. In May 2010, Harrods was sold to Qatar Holdings, the sovereign wealth fund of the State of Qatar.
