Owner, Hawes & Curtis
A supplier to retailers as well as a retailer himself, Touker spent his first thirty years in the industry as a manufacturer for companies such as Marks and Spencer, before buying the Jermyn Street shirt retailer Hawes & Curtis in 2004. There are now 26 Hawes & Curtis stores in the UK. Touker also owns the womenswear brand, Ghost, which he rescued out of administration in 2008.
The Retail Week Conference is a great chance to share valuable experiences with other brands. In an ever-changing industry, it’s important that retailers learn from one another to shape the high street of the future.
