021 - Jenny Holloway, Fashion Enter - What I've Learnt from Running a Clothing Factory


Listen Later

Meet Jenny Holloway, owner of Fashion Enter, a social enterprise garment factory based in North London.

Jenny not only manufactures for small brands and start-ups, helping create samples and small production runs, but she's also manufactured for some of the UK's most well-known retailers - such as ASOS and M&S.

In this very frank interview, Jenny discusses how tough it was to set up a clothing factory having previously come from a background in buying. She also discusses the principles that she believes make an efficient and ethical factory.

Anyone interested in understanding more about garment making in the UK will find this interview fascinating as Jenny is truly one of the trailblazers when it comes to reshoring textile manufacturing back to the UK.

I hope you enjoy the interview.
