Are you the Best of British?

There are many advantages for recipients of the prestigious Manufacturing Guild Mark – and some very good reasons why you should apply for one.

Nowadays more commonly known as The Furniture Makers’ Company, its charity supports those in need from the industry, while its Manufacturing Guild Marks confer peer-audited recognition of quality, best practice and Made in Britain status.

The purpose of the Manufacturing Guild Mark is to recognise and award UK-based manufacturers of furniture and furnishings.

Although the purpose of this article is to encourage you to make an application, it’s worth noting that a good few companies have been turned away from the outset because they don’t meet the application criteria.

There are 100-plus items in the qualification criteria.

Steve Bulmer C.E.O Biesse Group UK

Steve is convinced too few British manufacturers shout enough about their products: “We should be making more of a collective noise about things we’re really good at, and having a Manufacturing Guild Mark adds weight to the Made in Britain message and that collective pride in great British workmanship."
