Sunspel, the British heritage brand known for its beautiful everyday cotton clothes, has signed an agreement with Anglobal Ltd. for the Japanese market.

From Spring/Summer 16, Anglobal will start wholeselling Sunspel in Japan, and later on, it will open Sunspel stores. There is already a relationship between the two companies: for over 20 years, Anglobal has managed British brand Margaret Howell in Japan and Sunspel has produced Margaret Howell T-shirts for "even longer."

Sunspel has seen consistent growth in recent years, and had global brand sales of more than $18m (£12m) in 2014. The brand has four London stores and the first Tokyo store will now open in early 2016.
