Narry and Aron


Introduction 2008-04-01 to 2008-04-04
 
Narry and Aron Singh is an Indian in Bangkok. They have built up a very profitable and growing tailoring business, with an international clientele, for his bespoken suits and shirts. If you visit him once, he enters your measurements on his computer. You can then ring him from wherever you are and choose the style. He will have the suit made and delivered by air anywhere. His prices are less than a third of those in London and half of what New York tailors charge, and his quality is as good as Saville Row. Theoretically, India is a far better base for Narry’s business because everything is cheaper in India -- materials, labour, space. But Narry does not find it attractive to set up shop here. In Thailand, he can import any material freely -- fabric, threads, buttons, lining material. He can outsource the actual tailoring job to a set of individual Thai tailors whom he has trained. They take the material to the factory and return it to the shop within the day. His customers can fly into Bangkok on business, order a suit, visit his shop for a fitting and have the suit ready the next day.
