In the Spanish retail court, El Corte Inglés is king. It operates Spain's leading chain of department stores (under the El Corte Inglés name) and supermarkets (under the Hipercor, Supercor, Opencor banners), which span the country. Its other retail chains include Sfera (fashion and accessories), Óptica 2000 (eyewear), and Bricor (gardening and home improvement products). The Euro doesn't stop at groceries, apparel, and items for do-it-yourselfers, though. El Corte Inglés also offers financial and travel services, insurance, online shopping, and information and communications technology services. Beyond Spain, El Corte Inglés has local offices in Belgium, Greece, Italy, Mexico, Portugal, and the Middle East.
