In 1979 Green began purchasing large stocks of designer clothes that had gone into receivership from stores that were out of business. He opened his own store from which he sold the clothes.

In 1988 Green became Chairman of Amber Day, a discount company that was  listed on the London Stock exchange. Over time, he bought a number of rival chain stores including Owen Owen and Olympus Sports. Green made a good deal out of the latter, which he sold to JJB Sports for £550 million three years after the purchase. In 1999, he made a name for himself thanks to hostile takeover's attempt on Marks and Spencer, an acquisition which was blocked by the board of directors of the most famous British chain stores.

In 2002 Philip and his wife Tina acquired Arcadia Group which owned a number of chains, notably TopShop, Top Man, Miss Selfridge, Burton and Dorothy Perkins.
