FashionValet is undoubtedly a brand that resonates with Malaysians, boasting a following in over 15 other countries around the world including Singapore, Brunei, the UK, the US, the Middle East and Australia.

Even so, the brand is set to strengthen its local presence with more physical stores and scale up its infrastructure using this latest round of investments.

With its 150-strong team, FashionValet currently carries more than 300 brands on www.fashionvalet.com and will soon welcome 2 more stores - in IOI City Mall Putrajaya and Publika.

“I’m excited to do more for the Malaysian fashion industry – FashionValet is always on the lookout to help grow more local brands to compete in the international arena." shares FashionValet's Chief Creative Officer Vivy Yusof.

"The investment by Khazanah will help us to pursue this reality,” she adds.

Vivy co-founded FashionValet with her husband and FashionValet's CEO Fadza Anuar, who is equally proud of Khazanah's vote of confidence in FashionValet.  

FashionValet can now add this significant achievement to an impressive history of successful investments secured from firms like MYEG and the Silicon Valley-based Elixir Capital.
