House of Fraser PLC
 PROFILE
House of Fraser can fill virtually every room in an Englishman's house. The department store operator sells clothes, accessories, housewares, cosmetics, perfume, furniture, and electronics in about 50 stores throughout the UK. House of Fraser's department stores operate under 15 banners, including House of Fraser, Rackhams, Army & Navy, and Binns. Fashion purchases, including brand names (such as DKNY, French Connection, Elle, Armani, and Polo Ralph Lauren) and the company's own labels (Fraser, Linea, and Platinum, to name a few), account for about 70% of the company's sales. The House of Fraser also publishes a shopping magazine. London-based pension fund manager PDFM owns 17% of the company.
