Selfridges, também conhecida como Selfridge & Co., é uma cadeia de lojas de departamento no Reino Unido fundada por Harry Gordon Selfridge. A loja original abriu na Oxford Street em Londres em 15 de março de 1909 e era, na altura, a segunda maior loja do Reino Unido (depois do Harrods). Nos anos 1940, as lojas de província mais pequenas do grupo foram vendias à John Lewis Partnership e, em 1951, a loja original na Oxford Street foi vendida à cadeia de lojas de departamento Lewis. Na década seguinte, em 1965, tanto a Selfridges como a John Lewis foram adquiridas pelo Sears Group de Charles Clore. O Sears Group expandiu a Selfridges ao abrir filiais em Manchester e em Birmingham. Em 2003, o empresário canadiano Galen Weston adquiriu a cadeia de lojas da Selfridges por 598 milhões de libras. Os primeiros anos da loja foram dramatizados na série Mr Selfridge.
