Harrods named most popular department store in the world

New data has shown that Harrods took the top spot, with Selfridges coming in at second place, and New York’s Macy’s in third.

Selfridges took second place, with 9.49 out of ten. Google searches for the retailer averaged 109,000 per month, but it is loved on TikTok, with over 47 million views on the platform.
