Conran Shop bows out in France after 30 years in business

Conran Shop, the iconic Parisian concept store on rue du Bac, will close its doors for good on December 20. Present since 1992 in the adjoining former Bon Marché warehouses, the French subsidiary of the British design retailer has had to contend with inflation and changing consumer habits.
