Goldlion returns to apparel roots to restore its health
Article Abstract:
Hong Kong retailing firm Goldlion Holdings Ltd is attempting to return to its former profit levels by reemphasizing its strengths in apparel distribution. The company was formed in 1968 and it initially started to market ties and later expanded to include belts and shirts. For the year ended Mar 31, 1996, Goldlion posted revenues of HK$1OO million, one-fourth of which was profit. The company, however, started to encounter problems with its distributors, counterfeiting of its products and the failure of its expansion into cigarette distribution.
