Benefits of Buying British

British manufacturing is an essential part of the British economy and the sustainability of our nation. In recent years, the trend for cheap imported products has grown significantly, and with so much choice from other countries, it’s easy to forget the importance of supporting local businesses and industries. If we continue to rely solely on imported products, we run the risk of losing our manufacturing sector altogether.

Use it or lose it

Everyone knows the phrase “use it or lose it” and during these times of financial uncertainty it is more important than ever that we support our economy by consuming the products and services produced right here on our home turf.

By choosing British-made goods you can:

• Help preserve jobs within our communities.

• Preserve traditional craftsmanship and skills, which are essential for a thriving manufacturing sector.

• Contribute to a more sustainable future.

•  Reduce the carbon footprint associated with long distance shipping and transport.

• Invest in higher standards of quality and ethical production.

How Can You Support British Manufacturing?

• Look for the "Made in Britain" Logo - This label is a great way to identify British-made products. We are proud to have this mark on our products and displayed throughout our facility.

• Shop Local - Visit local markets, shops, and online retailers that specialise in British-made goods.

•  Support British Brands - Encourage and promote British brands and businesses.

There is so much on offer that has been grown, mixed, brewed, distilled and manufactured right here on our doorsteps. From beauty products to sweet potato spirits, industrial boilers (obviously) to doggy teepees, products that are made on Britain are all around us and it is time we embraced them.

With around 2,000 members covering everything from bathrooms to baby seats, Made in Britain official is a fantastic place to look for British produced goods. Check out their directory by visiting https://www.madeinbritain.org/members
