Celebrating the first Made in UK Day

As the appetite to shop locally and support local businesses grows, we’re taking part in the first-ever Made in UK Day on Tuesday 9th March 2021. 

The Made in UK Day campaign has been created by Make it British to celebrate their 10th anniversary. It was started as a blog by ex-retail buyer Kate Hills to champion all the wonderful products that are made in the UK.

Moixa garments are handcrafted in-house and by hand-picked UK manufacturers, with the majority being made to order discouraging waste within the supply chain. By purchasing from UK-made businesses like us you are helping to: 

Lower your carbon footprint

Buying products made closer to home means you can significantly reduce the number of miles something has travelled, reducing its carbon footprint.  

Promote UK craftsmanship 

When you buy a product that is made in the UK you are helping to preserve craftsmanship that has been passed down through generations.

 Boost local economies 

Buying locally-made directly contributes to your local economy.

 Preserve UK manufacturing 

If everyone living in the United Kingdom bought just one item made in the UK worth £20 on Made in UK Day it would be worth £1.3bn!
