Profile
After graduating from Nottingham Trent University in London, UK, in 1983, Chan Suk-ling joined the garment industry. At that time, the garment factory only produced menswear. Chan boldly introduced foreign brands, with the first being "Wrangler jeans." She deliberately invited foreigners to participate in advertising campaigns, which attracted large crowds to department stores to queue for purchases. The entire 1980s was a golden era for the garment industry. In 1987, she was appointed Deputy Managing Director of YGM Trading, overseeing the development of clothing brands, as well as retail and wholesale operations. Currently, YGM owns several brands, including "Aquascutum," "Ashworth," "Guy Laroche," "J.Lindeberg," and "Michel Rene," securing a strong position in the market.[2] In 2015, she became Vice Chairman of YGM Trading Limited.
