History
It was in 1944 that South Africa had seen its first Abrams store opened in Fietas, located in Johannesburg. The store served mixed communities and sold ladies wear, men’s wear and kids wear. At the time, Abrams was the pioneers of specialised clothing serving the greater communities due to their unique product offering. It was in 1975, that Abrams moved to the Oriental Plaza, in Fordsburg, Johannesburg – where they are still located today.
Abrams have since separated their product offering into two stores. The first store named Abrams stores and the second store named Abrams Lingerie.
