The short STORY

Chaps & Co is based on the concept of transforming a regular chore ‘a haircut’ into a pleasurable experience. The idea came to founder Jordan Davies, who found himself searching for reliable male grooming whilst an expat in Dubai. During the research, it became evident quickly that he was not alone. Co founders Chris and Mark joined forces to create Dubai’s first ‘new era’ male grooming concept.

Jordan Davies

Jordan co founded Chaps & Co in 2015 with the vision of building a male grooming brand rooted in experience, and consistency. With a background in brand marketing across the Middle East and Southeast Asia, he brings a sharp understanding of consumer behaviour, that drives loyalty and growth. Under his leadership, Chaps & Co has grown from a single location to an internationally recognised brand, with a clear strategy for continued expansion across franchising, products, and markets.
