A Yoker man has told of how he turned ‘retirement boredom’ into one of Clydebank’s newest businesses.
Inspiration struck after a trip to the Barras in Glasgow earlier this year and a couple of weeks later Paul set up Axil’s Closet.The business offers a variety of designer clothes at budget prices and is based at the Clydebank Co-operative building on Chalmers Street.He said: “I was bored in retirement and I wanted something to do. One of my favourite past times was taking a walk up to the Barras and wandering around there.
“A couple of people asked if I’d considered a concession in the co-op in Clydebank. So I went down and discussed it with them and they were happy to take me on. Over the past six months, he said he has used his buying expertise to secure deals and now has a catalogue of more than 500 items which he sells at a dramatic markdown.Paul added: “I used some of my pension money to buy these high-end dresses and I’m getting good deals.
