Est. 1849, London, Great Britain


A Brief History

We were established in our Knightsbridge store in 1849 by Charles Henry Harrod. Beginning in a single room and employing two assistants and a messenger boy, it mainly sold tea and groceries. We then steadily expanded, and by 1880 we were a thriving department store, offering everything from medicines and perfumes to clothing and food and attracted wealthy customers. Our expanses were slowed in 1883 when our store was destroyed in a fire, however we carried on and rebuilt with the help of Charles William Stephens creating our Knightsbridge store as it stands today. We became a public company in 1889 and by the 1890's we had established our own bank and estate agency and a department selling exotic pets that lasted until the 1970's. During World War II, we transformed our store from selling luxury goods to making uniforms, parachutes and parts for Lancaster bombers to support our country to win the war. The image below shows our London flagship store during the 1900's in  the heart  of Knightsbridge, London.

EvoCity Venture

After long discussion with the Harrods board it was decided alongside our proposed ventures in Shanghai, China it was discussed and approved that we will be making an expansion to EvoCity, United States of America. We aim to bring the height of luxury to EvoCity with our new store but without the London price-tags. We plan to have our new EvoCity store open and operational within the operating year of 2019 with some of the same features as our flagship store. Staff will be hired accordingly and we aim to provide a service as close to that of which we do in London .


Department Store

Our store's multiple departments offer a wide range of products and services. Products on offer include clothing for men and women, electronics, jewellery, bridal trousseau, food and drink, packaged gifts, stationery, housewares, home appliances, furniture, and automotive vehicles. The store consists of up to 8 departments at any one time and also contains the Harrods Estates office within the same building. The image below show's the general setup of the department store and it's location within EvoCity.

Subsidiaries

Harrods Estates - Harrods Estates established in 1897 as part of the Harrods group is our luxury property agent offering services for buying, renting and managing of properties (and assets) across EvoCity, in addition to our four current offices in London which specialise in prime central London properties. Our aim is to carry out the same as what we do in London at our office in EvoCity.

Announcement

It is with the deepest regret that I am writing this statement today. I have been informed from those above me within the company have concluded that a move to Evocity is not logistically, operationally or tactically worthwhile for the company. I hereby announce that Harrods Ltd. will not be opening a department store in Evocity as once planned and apologise for this being their conclusion.

However, a subsidiary of Harrods Ltd., Harrods Estates has received an offer to perform a merger with a company which is moving into Evocity in the coming weeks. The board have agreed on this merger with said company, in turn we will be present in relation to our estates but under the merging companies name. To be clear with the public the merger has cost the company in question $7,500,000.



Kind Regards,
Gary Whitehall
Board Member & General Manager of Harrods Ltd.
