A UK retail grandee has given his support to controversial Chinese fast fashion firm Shein a day after it was slated by the boss of Superdry. Ian Cheshire, previously the boss of DIY giant B&Q and a former chair of Barclays, told the BBC that Shein listing in London might help the business due to the “controls and quality requirements" needed.
Superdry PLC (LSE:SDRY) boss Julian Dunkerton has slated fast fashion firm Shien Group over a “loophole” allowing it to avoid taxes on parcels sent to customers from overseas. He argued the UK was “essentially” allowing Shien “to come in and be a tax avoider” in a BBC Radio 4 interview.
Superdry PLC founder Julian Dunkerton has pledged to make the brand cool again after it was rescued from falling into administration. After delisting from the London Stock Exchange last week, Dunkerton, who invested £10 million of his own cash to save the fashion group, has said it will look to drop its association with being a “dad brand”.
