Currys is the UK's largest electrical retailer. Its extensive product range includes digital vision, DVD, home theatre, audio, cooking, laundry, refrigeration, computing, communications and small domestic appliances. A comprehensive range of Hygena built-in kitchens is also available in larger Currys stores.
Currys is part of the Dixons group.
The Dixons started off as follows: Charles Kalms opened the first Dixons photographic studio in Southend. The business was incorporated as a private company under the name Dixon Studios Limited. Throughout the war years there was an unprecedented demand for portrait photography, particularly from service personnel and their families. The company flourished and set up seven studios in the London area. But by the end of the war, the market contracted as dramatically as it had expanded and the company was reduced to a single studio in Edgware, north London.
