HUMBLE BEGINNINGS
The idea of the XIOS brand, founded by Young H. Park, came from humble beginnings. As a young immigrant to America, he envisioned a clear plan for leaving his mark in the clothing industry. He would learn from the best retail business models, travel the world of sourcing, network with every aspect of the chain, and create something new – a company that provides high quality without the need to empty your wallet, something many promise, but few deliver.
