World oldest barber shop to set up business in SL?

23 January 2015

Truefitt and Hill, world's oldest barber shop as certified by Guinness Book of World Records in April 2000, wants to enter the Sri Lanka market and set up shops across the country, the company said in a media release.

The 200 year old barber shop is operating outlets in Beijing, Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Bangkok and Mumbai in Asia.
The company said they are keen to be part of Sri Lanka's luxury goods market and is presently looking for partners in Sri Lanka to spread their business.

“We are a royal warrant holder and have attended to the men in the royal family of Britain for nine consecutive reigns,” the company was quoted in the release.

“Sri Lanka has a huge luxury market and we are the most prestigious barber shop in the world.”
