History

The begining

Synek (Alison Hayes’ parent company) was established in Cyprus in the early 1960s as a garment manufacturer growing steadily from humble beginnings to eventually operating 5 factories in the country.

Growing business and the need to be close to our customers and our final consumers led to the establishment of Alison Hayes and the opening of our London office.

Alison Hayes Romania was established making us one of the pioneering investors in the garment sector in the country.

We opened our second factory in Romania, a centralised distribution centre and expanded our capabilities in the country to eventually include all non-client facing roles including our main sample room.

We opened our office in Vietnam to support our expanding manufacturing base in the country.
Manufacturing operations were expanded to Moldova.
