In Celebration of its 40 Year Anniversary, GS Reaches Out to the Community

Beirut, 01st of July 2014 – In celebration of four decades of ongoing success, innovation, and leadership in the retail industry, GS, a leading house of international brands for men, women and children, held a press conference on Tuesday June 17th, 2014 at St. Elmo’s Zaitunay Bay, to announce its partnership with the non-governmental agency Teach A Child, providing 1,000 children with complete, head-to-toe, tailored outfits for the start of the school year.

The retail company’s 40 Year Anniversary marks a very important milestone for GS and it has decided to celebrate this achievement by giving back to the community and helping those who are less fortunate, especially when it comes to children. GS has dedicated a special team to design and manufacture the outfits, as it believes no less fortunate child should feel any different from other students. Each student will receive a shirt, a pair of jeans, a belt, a sweater and a jacket, in addition to a backpack, guaranteeing each student is fully attired for the start of the new school year.

Mr. Jamil Rayess, General Manager of HST Co. (the company that owns and manages GS) said: “The success we witness today, we owe to the support of our community, and the only way to enjoy and reflect on this success is by taking the opportunity to thank all of our customers; That, I believe, is the best way to commemorate our forty years of achievements.” “GS will continue to grow, expand, and succeed, and as we continue to do so, we will also increase our efforts and continue to cater to our customers’ needs. If it weren’t for their loyalty and faith in our business, we wouldn’t be here today,” he concluded.
