The multiples and chain stores have been growing since the beginning of the century, and in the past 15 years they have grown very fast. Today more than a third of all the money spent by shoppers in Britain goes to the multiples – Mothercare, Halfords, H. Samuels, Dorothy Perkins, Timpson Shoes, Marley Tiles, Jackson Suits, Boots, British Home Stores, C&A, Woolworths, Marks & Spencer and the like. This film tells the story of the growth of the multiples, or chain stores, and the way they play the retail game. It shows in detail what goes on behind the scenes of two well-known organisations – Tesco and WH Smith – which have become household names.
