Rough Trade (3)

Rough Trade is a group of independent record shops in the UK, US and Berlin, Germany with headquarters in London, UK.
The first Rough Trade shop was opened in 1976 by Geoff Travis in the Ladbroke Grove district of west London. In 1978, the shop spawned Rough Trade Records. In 1982, the two separated and the shop remains an independent entity from the label / record company.
