Overview
Harrods is the world's most famous department store and one of London's top three attractions. The business, which was started by Charles Henry Harrod in 1849, has burgeoned from a small grocer's shop employing two members of staff into a seven-storey wonderland employing 6,000 members of staff. The store now has over 300 departments offering its customers hundreds of thousands of different lines. The store's motto, coined for the first time almost a hundred years ago - Omnia Omnibus Ubique (all things, for all people, everywhere) is as true today as it was then. Harrods has an average of 35,000 customers every day.
