TOKYO -- Japanese fast-fashion juggernaut Uniqlo plans to broaden sales of semi-made-to-order clothing around the world with the aim of accelerating growth.

The Fast Retailing unit already offers made-to-measure clothing in Japan. The customer supplies measurements or has them taken in-store, places an order, and receives the item at home in days.
