Touker Suleyman is the Dragon’s Den investor associated with the business empire behind the fashion retailer Ghost.
Suleyman is a British-Cypriot entrepreneur and investor whose career began in textiles and manufacturing. He became closely associated with the fashion label Ghost after acquiring a stake and helping develop the business. Ghost is known for its fluid fabrics, bias-cut clothing and distinctive minimalist style, particularly in womenswear.
Suleyman joined the Dragon’s Den panel in 2015, bringing experience from fashion, retail and manufacturing. His background differs from that of Dragons whose best-known companies are stationery, telecommunications or property businesses. That makes Ghost a useful link to his pre-television commercial career.
The brand should not be confused with the unrelated use of the word “ghost” in clothing labels, entertainment titles or technology companies. In this context, Ghost means the British fashion business associated with Suleyman’s investment and retail interests.
