Fur flies as Harvey Nicks takes on Jean Brodie's favourite shop

Article Abstract:

A Harvey Nichols store is being set up in Edinburgh, Scotland, and is likely to offer valet parking to customers. Local government has been told that the store will be located in Glasgow, Scotland, if parking is not permitted. Competing store, Jenners, opposes privileges being granted to Harvey Nichols.

Edinburgh shoppers are seen as conservative, so Jenners is still likely to play an important role in the city's shopping habits.
