Regional and textile heritage
We understand the value in supporting local and national projects to promote Sudbury9s silk heritage,
including initiatives around the Sudbury Silk Festival, giving talks to local interest groups, and supporting
the Gainsborough House Gallery.
Recognising the importance of our communities for the success of the business. Also, the benefit to our
local community of retaining employment in Sudbury, sharing the financial success with our staff, and
acting responsibly to restore and rejuvenate our local area.
Investment in industry leading technologies and innovation
Investment in technologies to ensure that the business is competitive, to meet the future needs of the
markets. Investing in equipment that will enhance the capability and further the ambition to create a
positive environmental impact; our latest weaving machines were enhanced and specially adapted with
grant funding support from Business Transition to Net Zero, thanks to the generous support of the New
Anglia Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP).
