BANGKOK, Feb 20 — A British co-founder of online fast fashion retail giant ASOS has died in Thailand after falling from a high-rise balcony, police said on Friday.<\/p>\n

Quentin Griffiths, 58, fell from the 17th floor of an apartment building in the seaside resort city of Pattaya on February 9, local law enforcement told AFP.<\/p>\n

”The motive is still being investigated,” said police officer Kosala Ngamphong.<\/p>\n

Griffiths had entered Thailand on a tourist visa, and the British embassy had been informed of his death, the officer added.<\/p>\n

Griffiths was a joint founder of ASOS in 2000, when the website retailed imitations of clothing worn in movies and on TV — its acronym name standing for “As Seen On Screen”.<\/p>\n

The firm evolved into a titan of the online fashion industry, selling established brands as well as its own low-cost line of garments with next-day delivery.<\/p>\n
