Make it British has announced Elite Labels as the headline sponsor for this year’s Meet the Manufacturer event, which brings together the best of British manufacturers with buyers and designers looking to make their products in the UK. Around 5,000 visitors are expected to attend the two-day event. This year’s programme includes free drop-in workshops and seminars plus over 150 exhibitors showcasing some of the top knitters, weavers, tanneries, leather-goods makers, CMT units and homeware factories in Britain today. New for 2017 is a brands hall, where visitors will have access to a selection of creative businesses who will be showcasing their distinct and inspirational labels at Meet the Manufacturer for the first time.
