LIBERTY PARTS COMPANY WITH CHIEF EXECUTIVE
Liberty Plc ('Liberty'), the iconic West End emporium, today announces that Iain

Liberty will be making a further announcement shortly.
Iain Renwick has been running the retail group for the past four and half years

major contribution to the current success of Liberty's retail business and has
created a fantastic team of senior executives. In future, the Company's focus
will be on the expansion of its Liberty of London luxury brand which requires a
different approach and style of leadership.'
Ends.
