Powered by People Partners with Liberty
Two brands, one shared mission
AndJacob
Liberty has not only been London’s most iconic department store since 1875, it’s been its most interesting. As Oscar Wilde, a regular at the shop, once said, “Liberty's is the chosen resort of the artistic shopper.”
Why? Because of its global scope—one that Powered by People is now helping fuel. Since Day One, Liberty looked beyond its surroundings, importing objets from Japan and the Far East, while inviting artisans from India to display their wares. Later, it was the driving force in cultivating and supporting the art nouveau style.
As the folks at Liberty like to say, “Liberty is, and always has been, more than a store—it’s an artistic movement. A hub of discovery and craftsmanship.”

In the nearly 150 years that Liberty has prospered, nearly everything in the world of retail has changed—except what matters. “Every product has a story to tell, and each brand has its own artisans at its core…” says Liberty. “[We] are dedicated to finding and sourcing not only the most hot-off-the-press brands but the talented craftspeople behind them, too.”
