Selfridges

Selfridges, also known as Selfridge & Co, is a chain of high end department stores in the United Kingdom. It was founded by Harry Gordon Selfridge. The flagship store in London's Oxford Street is the second largest shop in the UK (after Harrods) and opened 15 March 1909. More recently, three other stores have been opened; in the Trafford Centre (1998) and Exchange Square (2002) in Manchester and in the Bullring, Birmingham (2003). Until 1990, the store belonged to Liverpool's now-defunctLewis's retail group. Today it belongs to the Weston family. The shop's history was dramatised in 2012-13, in the British television series Mr Selfridge
