BHS, or British Home Stores, was a retail chain in the United Kingdom that specialized in selling home goods, clothing, and food. Founded in 1928, it became known for its affordable prices and wide range of products. At its peak, BHS operated hundreds of stores across the UK and was a popular shopping destination for families. In 2016, BHS faced financial difficulties and went into administration, leading to the closure of many stores and the loss of thousands of jobs. The company's decline was attributed to various factors, including changing shopping habits and increased competition from online retailers.
