ERA member Rough Trade East named one of London’s best retailers ERA member Rough Trade has seen its store in London's Brick Lane, Rough Trade East, named London's fifth best retail outlet, ahead of the likes of world-famous stores Harrods, Harvey Nichols and Top Shop Oxford Circus.

The accolade comes in listing magazine Time Out's '100 Best Shops in London'. Number one on the list was Liberty in Regent Street.
Rough Trade was founded 35 years ago in west London and opened its East store in 2007. Like many of the top-rated stores, Rough Trade is an independent, rather than a chain. Time Out says of the shop "you cannot get much closer to musical nirvana".
Rough Trade director Nigel House sits on the board of ERA and Rough Trade East store manager Spencer Hickman has been the driving force behind the UK's Record Store Day.
