Marks & Spencer is Britain’s favourite store. Tourists love it too. It attracts a great variety of customers, from housewives to millionaires. Princess Diana, Dustin Hoffman, and the British Prime Minister are just a few of its famous customers.

Last year it made profit of 529 mln. Pounds, which is more than 10 mln aweek.

Ten years later, he met Tom Spencer and together they started Penny Stalls in many towns in the north of England. Today there are 564 branches of M&S all over the world- in America, Canada, Spain, France, Belgium, and Hungary.
