Manor AG is a Swiss department store chain with its headquarters in Basel. It is owned by Maus Frères of Geneva, and is Switzerland’s largest department-store chain.[1] It generated total sales of CHF 3 billion in 2013.[2] Manor has been a member of the International Association of Department Stores since 1968.[3]
Company history
[edit]Brothers Ernest and Henri Maus together with Léon Nordmann opened their first department store in Lucerne in 1902, under the “Léon Nordmann” name. The more familiar “Manor” – a combination of the founders’ Maus and Nordmann surnames – did not appear until a new corporate identity was adopted in about 1965.
All the company’s department stores in German-speaking Switzerland have borne the Manor name since 1994, and all the stores in the rest of the country have carried the name since September 2000.[4]
