“As a relatively new business, we have found the East Midlands Manufacturing Network to be a highly informative network which offers strong levels of support and information which we otherwise wouldn’t have been aware of.”

Fox Fabrications

Tom Cantle, Director

“Being part of the East Midlands Manufacturing Network has so far been both rewarding and insightful. We’ve discussed sensitive topics and real-time business challenges and inter-traded with other industry leads. The Chairs and detailed meeting content are second to none.”

Structural Interior Installations

Mark Whittaker, Divisional Head

“As a champion of the Derby Spirit, we want to utilise the city, and its fellow manufacturers, to really shout about the benefits of UK Manufacturing. The Chamber’s East Midlands Manufacturing Network helps tremendously, with its networking events, access to funding and much, much more!”
