Giordano International, one of the world’s leading international apparel retailers, has intensified its investment in the Middle East with the establishment of the Giordano Middle East Free Zone Establishment at the Jebel Ali Free Zone. Giordano Middle East,  a 100 per cent subsidiary of Giordano International, will continue to provide strategic support, logistics, and management to Giordano’s franchise partners across the region and will lead Giordano’s expansion outside Asia and the development of its international franchising. The announcement came as Giordano International chairman, Dr Peter Lau, made a visit to the UAE from the company’s global headquarters in Hong Kong. His visit signifies the company’s confidence in the region as an engine for driving global growth. Aside from touring the new facility in Jebel Ali, Dr Lau met with the Middle East team and visited Giordano stores in the UAE. From : Khalij
