CEO’S Challenge (I)
The Honourable Vincent Fang has been involved in textile and garment manufacturing and retailing since he obtained a master’s degree in science of textiles engineering at North Carolina State University. Now he is the chief executive officer of the fashion retail group Toppy (International) Limited and managing director of garment manufacturer Fantastic Garments Limited.
Toppy has started manufacturing international brands when it was founded in 1973. It then started to develop its own fashion brands in tandem with building up a retail network for its finished products. Today, the group has production facilities based in the United States and countries in South America, Southeast Asia and mainland China. It also owns several high-end ladies’ fashion brands including Episode and Jessica.
With a comprehensive sales network in Hong Kong, mainland China, Europe and Southeast Asian countries, the group has introduced a new shopping concept – retail plus leisure and information – to the mainland by setting up the Novo shopping mall recently. It boasts a network of more than 350 outlets in municipalities like Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen and second-tier cities like Dongguan, Chengdu and Shenyang.
After spending more than three decades on his professional development, Vincent has become active in helping the fashion industry and its retail sector to upgrade their standard and has become highly involved in public services. He won an election in 2004 and now is a Legislative Councillor representing the wholesale and retail functional constituency. He is also a member of the Hong Kong Tourism Board, the Hong Kong Airport Authority, the ICAC Operation Review Committee and the Fight Crime Committee and chairman of the hospital governing committee of Princess Margaret Hospital, Kwai Chung Hospital and an honorary advisor of the Hong Kong Retail Management Association, as well as director of the Federation of the Hong Kong Garment Manufacturers.
