Arnotts is a department store on Henry Street in Dublin, Ireland. It was designed by G.P. Beater for John Arnott, and opened in 1895. It replaced an earlier store founded by George Cannock, Andrew White, and Andrew and Patrick Reid in 1845, which had burned down in 1894. The store is owned by the Selfridges Group, which itself is jointly owned by the Thai conglomerate Central Group and Saudi Arabian Public Investment Fund. It is sister stores with the Brown Thomas, De Bijenkorf, and Selfridges department stores through this ownership.
