Strong, Long-Standing Factory Relationships
Established partnerships with a network of trusted factories allow us to offer production flexibility, manage capacity effectively, and maintain consistent product quality across a wide range of styles and volumes.
Our long-standing history of manufacturing in the UK has played a key role in shaping how we operate today. It has instilled a deep understanding of the importance of strong, transparent relationships and hands-on support. This heritage influences the way we collaborate with our global partners—ensuring mutual trust, high standards, and shared values are at the heart of every factory relationship we build.
We work with 5 factories based in Zhejiang Province, China, who are managed by our China office based in Zhuji.
We have 2 long term partnerships with factories based in Istanbul, Turkey.
