Namal Balachandra Chairman Wills Design Pvt Ltd

He always had a passion to see men dressed in attractive attrite and it was this that drove him to open a shop in Mount Lavinia in the backyard of his home to stitch trousers employing a few trained youth.

The good words of customers enticed young Namal Balachandra to design his own brand of trousers, under the brand name, ‘Men’s look’ which became an instant hit.

This success made him move out of his house and set up a shop in Mount Lavinia and then with the help of friends won orders to tailor staff uniforms to leading five star hotels not only in Sri Lanka but in the Maldives as well.
