Manufacturing
If you are looking for help with sourcing, improving, or promoting yourself as a manufacturer; you are in the right place.
UKFT’s Let’s Make it Here is a free to use directory for anyone, in the UK or overseas, looking to source UK production.
The UK is home to a diverse range of businesses producing fashion and textiles, from heritage manufacturers fusing artisan techniques with the latest technology through to cutting-edge technical textile producers and high-end designer manufacturing specialists. This directory has been developed to make these businesses easier to find.
If you are a designer, brand or retailer you can search the database to find UK companies who can produce for you to your specifications; who can provide services such as pattern cutting, grading and printing or who supply quality components such as buttons or interlinings.
If you are a UK manufacturer you can list your business on the directory to help you promote your business to the industry.
