London Makes
London's diverse manufacturing scene
"Walking through London’s busy streets, you would not imagine that the city boasts one of the world’s most diverse manufacturing scenes.
But throughout its 32 boroughs, people are making propellers, bicycles, ballet shoes, military uniforms, cardboard packaging, neon signs, umbrellas, chocolate truffles, furniture, beer, bread, and much more."
#LondonMakes celebrates the diversity of craftsmanship behind just 6 of the 4000+ manufacturers based in London. A reminder that world-class manufacturing isn't something happening elsewhere, it's thriving right on our doorstep.
A huge thanks to Kaymet, Diespeker, Souvenir Scenic Studios, Small Beer Brewing Company, London Stone Carving and Weber Industries. All specialised workshops and factories, based within fifteen minutes of each other, around Old Kent Road.
