In addition to Martha's answer, there is an association of royal warrant holders which will tell you about it, and let you search a database of stores which have received them. Harrods was stripped of three of its four warrants after its owner accused Prince Philip of the murder of Diana. There was a cigarette company which had a warrant for supplying royal parties but the Queen removed this as she personally disliked smoking. And although they are only supposed to remain for five years after the granter's death, my hometown still has a jewellers with a warrant from HRH the Duke of Windsor who died in 1972!

Royal warrants are granted to people or companies who have regularly supplied goods or services for a minimum of five consecutive years to The Queen, The Duke of Edinburgh or The Prince of Wales.
Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother was also a grantor of warrants; warrants granted by her will be retained for five years from her death (until 2007).
Each of these members of the Royal Family can grant only one warrant to any individual business, but a business may hold warrants from more than one member of the Royal Family.
