The part other shops don't tell you. Three separate questions, kept separate on purpose, each with its source.
Registered at Companies House as THE LEVEL COLLECTIVE LIMITED, number 10038493. Checked 2026-08-29.
Means the business is a British legal entity, not a British-sounding name owned elsewhere. It says nothing about where anything is made.
Not yet checked.
Means people employed here, or premises they actually work from. We keep this separate from the company badge because a registered office can be an accountant's spare room, and a company can be registered in Britain while everything it does happens somewhere else. Where we have not looked, we say so rather than assuming.
No majority shareholding traced outside the UK. Companies House.
Read from the register of people with significant control, following the chain of holding companies. It does not gate anything: a firm can be made here and owned elsewhere, and that is worth telling you rather than hiding.
The maker states: Manufacturing in Britain is expensive, but we believe in supporting local makers and craftspersons. That's why each of our packs is cut and sewn from start to finish in the UK. Every bag is then hand signed by its maker.
Source. Their words, not ours; we have not independently verified it.
This is about the individual product, not the company. A British firm can sell things made abroad, which is normal and not a criticism. We would rather tell you which is which than average them into a score.
