Crew Clothing also advanced that the board is “cautiously optimistic” about the year ahead. Alastair Parker-Swift, who remains a director, founded Crew Clothing in 1993 after selling rugby shirts and sailing-themed garments from a windsurfing shop in Salcombe, Devon.
Isis Equity Partners acquired 25 per cent of Crew Clothing, which also sells casual shirts and jeans for men and women, as part of a £7.75m deal in 2006, reminded The Independent.
The chain of 60-plus UK shops was boosted by 11 new stores it opened last year as well as a growing online operation.
