"Being a micro business makes it hard, expensive to be heard and spread companies values; this is what platforms, like Make it British, can do. Lots of us cannot afford to shout about our brand as much as we would like and Make it British does this excellently. "

"The community networking and support has been invaluable in the difficulties of starting up and the pandemic. Being able to draw on advice from people that are have been there and are facing similar problems is so useful, but also knowing we are all cheering each other on in this difficult time too. Collaboration and community is key to future progress."

Where's Winnie
"Prior to Where’s Winnie, I had no manufacturing experience. Kate did a fantastic job of helping me understand the jargon and how to approach factories. Secondly, the direct introductions were a complete game-changer. Manufacturers take me more seriously and it's helpful to know who to go to and not just stabbing in the dark!"

"A big win for me was finding a manufacturer. I was a bit lost with James Thursby. I had a quite good idea initially, but then I got messed around and got stuck.

Peper Harow
"We expected Make it British to be "just another directory" but the website traffic, brand visibility, sales, and even collaborations with other brands made in the UK has been absolutely phenomenal. Any brand that's made in the UK, in any sector, that isn't a part of Make it British is missing out."
