Indian retailer Raymond opens in Pakistan

[IndoCarib]

Karachi: Raymond, an Indian suiting and fabrics conglomerate, will on Friday formally open its first shop in Pakistan, where business leaders welcomed it as a step towards closer trade ties between the two nuclear rivals.

NexSource Pakistan, which acquired the rights to sell Raymond suiting in Clifton, one of the most upscale neighbourhoods in business capital Karachi, said it was a major acquisition.

“They wanted to bring Raymond to Pakistan and we offered to be their partner,” said one of its directors, Najmus Saqib.

Nexsource say they expect to reap good business after an aggressive advertising campaign in a city whose wealthier residents are sartorially obsessed and where fashion is a key driver of business.

He might have go confused with Raymond Davis......A name that rings bell in mind of the people for wrong reasons.

Its a business venture for profit and is the way to go for both countries....I also hope they source some good raw fabrics from Pakistan as they have a very large industry.
