Dato’ Sharan Valiram stands as one of the pivotal forces behind the transformation of the Valiram Group into Southeast Asia’s foremost luxury goods and comprehensive retail expert.

Originally established in 1935 as a textile trader by his grandfather, the Valiram Group has undergone a remarkable evolution under Valiram and his younger brothers. They have steered the family business from its humble roots into a pinnacle of luxury retail, spanning nine territories and managing an impressive portfolio of 200 brands across diverse categories. These encompass fashion, accessories, timepieces, jewellery, perfumes, cosmetics, confectionery, and innovative dining concepts.

In 2001, Valiram Group expanded into luxury watch retailing, inaugurating its first Swiss Watch boutique in Penang International Airport. Today, Swiss Watch is one of the region’s foremost watch retailers, boasting a collection of 50 prestigious brands and operating across Malaysia, Singapore, Australia, and Thailand.

Apart from running the family business, Valiram serves as president of the Malaysia Retail Chain Association.
