Israeli fashion chain ventures into Far East market, launches two new branches in Thai capital's malls
The Castro Israeli fashion chain will soon open its first two branches in the Far East: Yedioth Ahronoth has learned that the chain is set to launch two stores in Thailand's capital Bangkok by November.
The first branch will open at the recently-renovated Siam Mall, one of the city's leading shopping centers. A second store will be located at the newly-opened Plaza Mall. The huge stores will offer women's and men's wear, shoes and accessories.
The branches will be operated by a local franchiser involved in the Thai fashion industry.
Up until today, Castro has marketed its products in Bangkok department stores. According to Gabi Rotter, Castro's CEO, following a year of operations the chain will look into the possibility of opening more stores in the city. Castro currently operates 28 branches worldwide
