Back in 2006 we started out as Nisa Designer wear based in Glasgow – a one stop fashion and beauty shop serving the Asian community of Glasgow. This gave us the perfect taste of the market and customer demands. Due to personal circumstances and family commitments we decided to cease trading around 2009.
Fast forward 10 years and Covid struck forcing us to leave our secure employment to provide childcare, we decided to revisit our initial dream and create a career around our own working hours, doing what we loved as well as being there for our children. And so, the story began of Anaya Collection...
We decided to make another start within an industry we were familiar with we started out at the back end of 2020. We used our savings to create a professional website and started trading from our house selling our own designed line of fashion wear. As time progressed, we added additional lines of shawls and jewellery. In late 2021 we opened the doors to our 1st retail outlet for our Glasgow based customers. By early 2022 Anaya Collection had become Scotland's leading online retailer of fashion wear blending designs and traditions from the east to cater for the western market.
We had never been on Instagram and didn't have a personal Facebook account. We learnt slowly and this is how we built the brand – Anaya Collection. Today we are still very much hands on. We take images for social media and answer all direct messages our self. All updates on our website are created by us and we still answer customer service emails and package up orders.
Our vision is fast-paced, forward-thinking and fashion-centred at its core, and all of our products reflect these ideals. We invite you to browse our site to find just what you have been looking for.
Look good, feel good, shop Anaya Collection today.
