This follows new partnerships with Demsa in Turkey and Reliance Brands in India.

Mr Benjamin, F J Benjamin said:

 

"Superdry is one of the most popular young fashion chains to appear in the UK in recent years and we believe it will take Southeast Asia by storm. We like their fashion edginess and their constant drive to stay relevant to the market. We look forward to partnering SuperGroup."
