Launched in 1989 in the country, Pepe Jeans currently has a 25 per cent marketshare in the premium jeans and casual- wear segment.
"We are targeting a 20 per cent growth in the next five years," Shah said.
On the industry trend going forward, he said "in the next five years, growth will be controlled as the market is getting corrected."
"Overall, the market in this segment has de-grown but we have grown as we have (captured) the market shares of some other brands," Shah said.
