We address fashion conscious consumers of both genders and all ages through our ten
distinct brands: Padini, Seed, Padini Authentics, PDI, P&Co, Vincci, Vincci Accessories,
Tizio, Miki Kids and Brands Outlet. Each of these labels represents a particular fashion
philosophy and encompasses a comprehensive range of products that fit into our
targeted consumers universe.
