UK Manufacturing
UK fashion and textile manufacturing is a vibrant, diverse and innovative part of the sector that produces high-quality products used in hospitals, cars, international catwalks and the high street. It creates jobs and opportunity and is a significant driver of growth to the UK economy.
We support the growth of ‘made in the UK’ by promoting the capabilities and capacity of the UK fashion and textile manufacturing base to partners in the UK and beyond.
We work with manufacturers to accelerate innovation, enhance skills and unlock access to investment. We work with government and industry to create the right conditions for UK manufacturing to thrive.
