Moumita Chakraborty, Head-Marketing, Prateek Apparels, told fiber2fashion, “F Square has been conceived with a single-minded view of ‘making India fashionable’. Our vision ahead is to make F Square a one stop shop for all fashion needs.”
 
“The key principle of F Square is - Fast Fashion at the Right Price,” she adds. 
 
F Square offers a wide range of products such as men’s formals, youth casuals, women’s ethnic and western apparels. 
 
F Square’s products also include trousers, jeans, chinos, t-shirts and accessories for men and kurtas, kurtis, salwar-kameez-dupattas, tops and jeans for women.

Revealing about the brand’s expansion plans, she avers, “We are planning to expand pan India with presence in all major metros, Tier II & III cities. We currently follow a ‘state-hopping’ strategy where we enter into one state, penetrate completely including tier II & III cities, and then move on to the next state.”
