Albion House Ltd, Lausanne

Albion House Ltd was a notable high-end clothing manufacturer and outfitter, recognized for producing premium neckties and menswear during the mid-20th century. Based in Lausanne, Switzerland, it maintained strong manufacturing and retail ties to Ireland and the United Kingdom. The company manufactured in Ireland expressly for this Swiss shop. Ireland is historically famous for "Irish Poplin" ties (a unique silk and wool blend), and luxury retailers across Europe frequently commissioned Irish mills to produce their neckwear.
