Which fashion company did Dragon's Den investor Touker Suleyman buy in 2002?

Touker Suleyman bought the fashion company Hawes & Curtis in 2002.

Hawes & Curtis is a British shirtmaker and menswear brand with a history dating back to 1913. Suleyman's acquisition gave him a platform in formal clothing and helped build his profile as a fashion entrepreneur. The brand became known particularly for shirts, suits, and other tailored products sold through stores and online channels.

Suleyman later joined Dragon's Den as an investor, bringing experience from clothing, retail, manufacturing, and brand development. His business career also includes the fashion label Ghost, which he acquired after its founder encountered financial difficulty.

Hawes & Curtis is easy to confuse with other British shirt retailers, especially Charles Tyrwhitt and TM Lewin. Those companies are separate brands. The date refers to Suleyman's purchase of Hawes & Curtis, rather than the brand's founding in the early twentieth century.
