Our people are a huge part of our history and heritage. That’s why we had to grab 60 seconds with Rita, one of our sales associates who has worked at Harrods since 1982. What a memorable 60 seconds it was. 

Tell us all about your memories at Harrods
My husband of 66 years had a Harrods account and we used to shop here all the time. I always remember on a Friday you couldn’t move in the food halls, because it was so busy. The first day of the Harrods sales used to be televised on the 6 o’ clock news. I was very proud to tell people I work at Harrods. I recently celebrated my 90th birthday at The Georgian restaurant (now Harrods tea room). It was lovely, we had a tea party, with some of my closest colleagues and my family. I really enjoy working at Harrods, you’re surrounded by magic and kind employees. I hope I go on for many years yet.
