Trier – Woolworth
In Germany, the Woolworth name lives on, originally founded as a subsidiary of the US chain in 1927. Between 2007 and 2010 it was owned by the British company Argyll Partners, before being sold to Tengelmann, who were able to save it from decline. They’ve been opening up new stores and have acquired the rights to expand the chain to countries across Europe, with the exception of the UK.
