We at ABFRL, present stories excerpted from Peter England’s internal newsletter ‘Trendsetters’, where we celebrate stories of our people and their contributions.
Keeping customers happy whenever they visit the store is an integral part of the ABFRL DNA, and Peter England is no exception. Here are a few anecdotes of how we brought smiles to the faces of our patrons.
Abhishek, Balrampur Store Manager, Uttar Pradesh
A customer visited our store for his wedding shopping on 27th March. He picked one suit, but it wasn’t available in his size. The store manager arranged for the suit in his size from another store 350 Km away, which arrived the very next day! The customer was so overjoyed that he invited the entire store staff for his wedding as well!
Chilakaluripeta Store, Andhra Pradesh
A customer visited our store for his wedding shopping at 9.30 pm. He gave the trouser for alteration, but at that late hour, the tailor wasn’t available. The customer’s marriage was to be solemnized the next morning at 11 am and he wanted the trouser delivered by 10 am. Our staff Shiva went to the tailor’s house at 8 am and requested him to complete the alteration as soon as possible. The product was delivered to the customer on time. The customer was very touched and happy with our service. He visited our store twice after his wedding and has become our loyal customer.
Jeet, Sundar Nagar Store Manager, Himachal Pradesh
A customer, doctor by profession, visited the store with an intent of window shopping, as he was in town to meet his relatives. After a brief conversation with the store manager, he decided to try a white trouser, which he had been wanting to purchase for a while. He ended up spending about 2.5 hours at the store, purchasing a white trouser, 3 shorts, a three-piece-suit, tie, belt, innerwear and deodorant. He was highly appreciative of our staff service and merchandise as well. The store team keeps in regular touch with this customer.
Serampore Store, West Bengal
The customer chose a Nehru Jacket on the day our store opened. He further selected two shirts, however, sizes were not available. The next day, our team arranged for the shirts in the required size from the Maslandapur store. Through a video call, the customer saw these shirts in his size, and he made an online payment for them. We then delivered the shirts to his residence.
Rajampeta Store, Andhra Pradesh

Hingoli Store, Maharashtra
A customer visited our PE Red Hingoli store for the first time to purchase a shirt. He loved our casual shirts display and asked for the CCA. Our CCA assistant Mr. Vishnu understood his requirement and the customer bought products worth INR 40,000. When Mr. Vishnu explained to him about our free trimmer offer, the customer added more merchandise.
