A surge in profits at Harrods, the Knightsbridge department store has led to it earning its Qatari owners a £118m dividend.
Recent accounts show that turnover grew by 10% to £843m in the year to February 2014, with pre-tax profits up 24% to £115m. The dividend is almost double the £68.6m paid out the previous year.
The Qatar Holding sovereign wealth fund bought the department store from Mohamed Al Fayed for £1.5bn in 2010.
