Luxury convenience store | Update

Retail Published on 6 July 2006 in Retail

The Gulf Marketing Review reports that Harrods' owner, Mohamed Al Fayed, is considering opening a Harrods 102 in Dubai. The upscale convenience store, which we featured in May, could ultimately be rolled out to 100 stores in cities across the UK, as well as Paris, Berlin and New York.

Like the first outlet at 102 Brompton Road in London, the stores will stock signature Harrods products, as well as containing a pharmacy, spa, deli and a variety of other services. Al Fayed is quoted as having said that he wants to make Harrods available to 'ordinary' people. Ordinary people with more money than time will surely welcome the idea of upgrading the convenience store concept, wherever it decides to make itself available! What's your upgrading project going to be?
