BUSINESS DESCRIPTION
 
This business, which was first established in 1979, has secured a position in a niche market providing a cut, make and trim service to a number of well-known designer brands. The bulk of the work is produced in jersey material.

Current designer label customers include: -

Jean Muir, Future Classics,
Kidscaper, Hannah White,
Maria Chenpasqual, Rich Nics,
Kate Storer, Adrenalin and
Kit & Kaboodle

The business is widely recognised in the industry for its flexibility and ability to maintain confidentiality in this competitive market sector. Much of its new business is through referral from the existing and past customer base.

It specialises in the production of lower quantity runs required by this niche market.


Through the specialisation in this unique market sector the business now finds that there is little direct competition. Most of the business is derived from London based fashion houses but work also comes from other parts of the UK.

This specialisation has also protected it to some extent from the move to manufacturing in lower cost overseas countries, which has affected many of the UK manufacturers.

It is currently in a period of growth.

Further details will be provided only on completion of a non-disclsure agreement.
