elegant socks i.e the kind of socks that match e.g your suit
what about this sentence:
As we expanded our commercial offer, we moved to larger premises.
other shops-you're right
low-pressure....well, I meant the type of socks that do not pressure your leg..you know, in such socks the blood circulates better I don't know exactly the term for such socks
cooperation- when you seek business partners.
oh, and are the words "to equip" and" stock" appropriate in this context because I also thought about "to supply" and "assortment"..
