Lagos famous clothier shuts down business

Lagos famous clothier, Tex Egbedi, has shut down the clothing business.
Texen, an upscale fashion house strictly for men’s wear on Awolowo Way, Ikeja, Lagos state has been shut down.
Those who should know revealed that the reason for the closure of the outfit, which used to be one of the best for men in the Ikeja axis of the state, is not unconnected with poor patronage, occasioned by the proliferation of new crop of fashion houses in Ikeja and its environs.
Others claimed the current not too-smooth economic situation of the country seemed to have put spanner in the business of the once flourishing outfit.
And Tex Egbedi is not quite happy about this development.
The Delta State born advertising guru turned designer, who started his business in the 90s after his return from abroad, ranks high among his contemporaries like Sofitiscate owned by idowu Ogunlesi, Vivid Imagination run by Charlse Mekunye and Bevista who sews for big men in the country.
The business place in Ikeja has been closed for more than six months now.
