About Us

We are a small family run manufacturer who have been in the business of making and wholesaling umbrellas for over 210 years. We are recognised as the longest established umbrella manufacturer in the UK. Please take a look at our company history page for more info about our timeline and key moments. We export worldwide and are currently seeking wholesale/retail partners, distributors and agents.

We are an ethical company and pride ourselves in promoting a sustainable supply chain. We work hard to source our materials from as close to home as possible from traceable, sustainable sources. We are members of Sedex , the Supplier Ethical Data Exchange. We believe in investing in our workforce and retaining valuable skills which is why we are an accredited London Living Wage employer. We promote good labour practices and encourage a safe, happy and productive workforce.  And we offer flexible working to enable our staff to have a good work life balance.

         We are members of our local East End Trades Guild and the East London Chamber of Commerce.

         We actively support local interests and charities including Providence Row, who help people get off          and stay off the streets in the area; Five Talents  who provide micro finance for startups and                        local business in developing countries; and Water Aid.
