NEWSHOP

Japan's leading manufacturer of quality suits, Konaka, has expanded its business to Thailand by opening the first flagship store for its leading suit brand, Suit Select, at the Eden Zone, Level 3 of CentralWorld. Flown in directly from Japan to attend the store's grand opening early this month were executives from Konaka led by Kensuke Konaka, president and CEO, and Kashiwa Sato, creative director of Suit Select.

"Thailand is the country of choice because Konaka Co has always had decent business connections with Thai clients," said Konaka. "The Thai garment market is also open and alert to new innovation, which goes perfectly with Suit Select's philosophy of being a suit shop with technology implementation."
