Company History Betty Barclay was founded by Max Berk following a trip to New York during the 1950s when he stumbled across a brand called Betty Barclay, which was creating an impact among American teenagers. Max returned to Germany, bought the licence for production and distribution of the American collection and adapted it to European tastes. Within a few years, sales grew to almost DM20m and approximately 1000 employees were working in 10 factories. The Gil Bret, Second and Vera Mont collections have since been created. In June 1999, the Betty Barclay brand shifted its focus from the exclusively classic to a stronger fashion-led orientation reflecting the words of UK CEO, Denise Shepherd that “women are no longer defined by their age but by their approach to life”. Today, the brand employs more than 1500 people worldwide and produces more than six million items a year. Design & Manufacture German design.
