Who We Are

Blenkinsop Leathers Ltd. was established in 1989 by Derek Cooper, Robin Gardner and Andrew Miller, three former employees of Odell Leather factory which had closed earlier that same year. The company initially opened in a small factory with a workforce of only fifteen people, however, as the business grew, larger premises were required, causing the relocation of the business to its current site in Higham Ferrers. Many of the original employees still work for Blenkinsop Leathers Ltd. which has a local, highly skilled workforce, a number of whom have several decades of experience within the leather trade. For some time Robin Gardner and Andrew Miller managed the company together but have since been joined by Gregory Miller.
