Hardy & Greys Ltd
Hardy & Greys became part of Pure Fishing in 2013. Established in Alnwick, Northumberland in 1872, by brothers William and John James Hardy, the company was originally a gunsmith, but began selling fishing tackle in 1874. The company was granted it's first patent in 1880, and has never looked back - innovation is still at the forefront of what we do. The company became Hardy & Greys Ltd in 2004 – the change of name reflecting the acquisition of fellow fishing tackle brand Greys, later followed by the acquisition of Chub. In 2013, we became part of the global Pure Fishing family. Read more at: We still design and develop our tackle in house, and our expert team of designers, engineers and of course anglers are passionate about developing quality tackle. Additionally, we still make a selection of rods and reels in our Alnwick factory, ensuring the tradition of innovation is continued.

Charles Owen
World famous for raising the bar in safety, Charles Owen is a leading British manufacturer of riding helmets. When Charles Owen himself founded the company in 1911, his mission was to make products for a safer world. Now under the direction of Charles Owen’s great-grandson, the mission has remained the same, but has extended its reach to all parts of the globe. All of our products are manufactured in our state of the art factory in North Wales. Inside the huge space, workers are organised into small teams that create the product from start to finish. Quality is paramount, as any small error could cause a life threatening defect. Getting it right the first time, every time is the mantra of the production team. With many companies finding it increasingly difficult to manufacture in Great Britain, Charles Owen has bucked the trend and announced its exciting expansion programme that includes the construction of an impressive new warehouse. In 2011 Charles Owen celebrated its centenary by creating the largest equestrian helmet manufacturer in the UK. The expansion enables the company to continue to grow its business globally, as the already internationally recognised brand exports nearly 70% of its British made products worldwide. The now square foot premises are situated on Croesfoel Industrial Park, Wrexham. Remember, if it says Charles Owen on the inside, then its made in the UK.

Sonik Sports Ltd
A Dynamic Company with a Big Vision SONIK SPORTS LTD was founded in 2008 with one goal… to create superbly designed fishing tackle that anglers across the world could trust. What began with a passion for fly, carp and sea rods has evolved into a leading fishing tackle company with an expanding European footprint, multiple brands and a growing global reputation. Our journey started in the UK where our head office and main warehouse are located, in Blyth, Northumberland. This facility supports our strong domestic dealer network. As demand grew across Europe, we established a second distribution centre just outside Prague, in the Czech Republic, to streamline operations and better serve our European customers. What sets Sonik Sports apart is our DNA — this is a company built by anglers, for anglers. Our founders, all passionate anglers with long-standing careers in the fishing tackle industry, had a vision! That vision was to build something lasting, something that combined knowledge with forward-thinking design and to surround themselves with people who shared the same passion. That legacy continues today, with most of our team members, from product developers to customer service, having had a long association within the fishing tackle industry, bringing that knowledge and passion into everything we do. Our product philosophy is simple, exceptional design, real-world performance, fair pricing, and dependable service. We work closely with trusted manufacturing partners and collaborate with a network of anglers and consultants across the UK and Europe. This ensures that every rod, reel, chair, net and accessory we release, reflects the experience and dedication of those who use them every day. Today, Sonik Sports works with over 900 dealers worldwide. We continue to expand our reach, develop new innovations and serve the angling community with pride. Because for us, this isn’t just business… it’s our life, our passion and our legacy.

Frog Bikes
We are an award winning British company dedicated to making cycling fun for children. We design and manufacture lightweight bikes for children - our range includes balance bikes, first pedal bikes, hybrid bikes, mountain, road and track bikes. We believe that the lighter the bike, the easier it is for children to learn to ride, and to enjoy it more as they progress. Many children's bikes on the market weigh nearly as much as the child! So we set about re-designing kids' bikes, producing a light but strong aluminium frame, and hand-picking components that offer high performance without compromising the weight. We have used ground-breaking research from Brunel University's sports scientists to design bikes which are as comfortable as possible for children of all sizes. Our lightweight bikes have been welcomed as offering a very high quality, affordable product for cycling families, schools and training organisations. Children love the bright bold colours, and parents and trainers love the quality, the weight and the great value for money. Since 2014 we have collaborated with Team Sky to make a range of bikes and accessories in the famous Team Sky colours, to inspire more children to follow in the footsteps of their sporting heroes! And in 2016 we launched a beautiful Union Jack bike with Olympian Joanna Rowsell. Our bikes are available to buy through the best independent bike stores all over UK, mainland Europe, USA, Canada, and in select stores in South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong and Japan.
