We all know the shopping store Zara and how popular it is but what some of us don’t know is Zara’s history and who the founder is, whether Zara is a male or a female? Well, this post is going to envisage the reader’s mind and look into Zara’s history and popularity.
Zara is a Spanish brand founded on 24thMay 1974 from A Coruna, by Amancio Ortega and Rosalia Mera. In the early days Zara was actually named after a movie called “Zobra the Greek”, so Zara was “Zobra”. Although the original name was “Zobra” and had its value then, I believe that the name Zara is much better and more modern. Moreover, the name Zobra didn’t stay for long because the founder Ortega realised that there was a bar on the same block where their shop was located that was called Zobra. Accordingly, Ortega decided to change the name “Zobra” to the current name “Zara”. Surprisingly, in the back days Zara was like Primark in our days, meaning that Zara used to sell “lookalike low-price” clothes.
After Zara’s popularity in the early 80s, Ortega opened more stores across Spain and decided to change their style and instead of having one designer, he had a group of designers to design their own fashion line and Ortega called it “Instant Fashions”. After 8 years in 1988, Zara started becoming international as they opened in Portugal, Porto as Porto is the city of art and from this step Zara started expanding across the world. For example, France, Mexico, Italy, Greece, Japan, Malaysia and many more countries.
In September 2010, Zara lunched their online shopping website in the UK and in some other countries. Nowadays Zara has many stores across the UK that keep renewing their clothes and decorations. For example, recently Zara renewed their designs and moved to a bigger store in High cross in Leicester, UK. The above video shows their new and improved store.
