El Puerto de Liverpool (officially El Puerto de Liverpool, S.A.B. de C.V.) is a Mexican company that consists of commercial, financial, and real estate operations. The commercial area operates the department store chains Liverpool and Suburbia, freestanding retail stores of multiple fashion brands, and the Arco Norte logistics center, under construction. The financial group offers insurance as well as credit to customers of the two department store chains. The real estate group operates shopping malls, all but one (Perisur) branded Galerías.

El Puerto de Liverpool held (as of December 2023) a US$246 million, 9.745% stake in U.S. retailer Nordstrom, and a 50% stake in El Salvador-based Unicomer Group, which operates retail chains in 26 Latin American countries. On December 23, 2024, it was announced that the company plans to increase its stake in Nordstrom to 49.9% as part of the American department store's plans to be taken private. In May 2025, the Nordstrom family and El Puerto de Liverpool finalized an all-cash acquisition of Nordstrom, taking the company private. The Nordstrom family now holds a 50.1% stake, while El Puerto de Liverpool owns the remaining 49.9%.

The Group's headquarters are in Santa Fe, a suburb and a main business center in Mexico City.
