Ramsey is a globally recognized Turkish menswear brand that has successfully blended European elegance with modern tailoring for decades. Established in London in 1972 and further developed in Turkey from 1985 onward, the brand has grown into a strong international player, operating stores in more than 20 countries worldwide. Its collections are defined by timeless design, contemporary aesthetics and high-quality craftsmanship, appealing to today’s modern businessman who values both style and substance. Beyond fashion, Ramsey places strong emphasis on sustainable production practices and long-term brand value, positioning itself as a responsible and future-oriented global label.

The golden franchise model

In partnership with Franchising.Market and Nova Golden Franchise, Ramsey has introduced an innovative Golden Franchise model designed specifically for international investors. This structure goes far beyond the classic franchise approach, offering not only the opportunity to operate a premium retail business, but also access to a comprehensive ecosystem that includes brand support, operational know-how and potential pathways to residency in Europe or the Americas.

With an investment starting from approximately USD 200,000, investors gain access to a premium store concept suitable for high-street locations and shopping malls. The model includes full operational and training support from the brand, as well as strategic backing from the global investor network of Franchising.Market. By integrating fashion, entrepreneurship and international mobility into a single framework, the Golden Franchise model transforms franchisees into long-term partners in Ramsey’s global growth strategy.

Strategic expansion across Europe and the Americas

Ramsey’s international expansion strategy is clearly focused on key markets in the United Kingdom, Germany and the United States, with ambitious growth targets set through 2026. Each market is approached with tailored retail concepts and investment structures that reflect local consumer behavior and commercial realities. In the UK, the brand’s minimalist design language aligns naturally with contemporary menswear trends. Germany offers strong consumer trust in Turkish brands combined with a robust retail infrastructure, while the United States presents rapidly growing demand in the “affordable luxury” segment.

Supported by the collaboration between Franchising.Market and Nova Golden Franchise, Ramsey’s international development is structured, investor-oriented and sustainable. This new phase is widely seen as a strategic milestone that strengthens the global position of Turkish menswear, while creating long-term partnerships that deliver both commercial returns and international lifestyle opportunities.
