Fabrika London, established in 2016, transformed from a one-man business with a sewing machine at home to a fast-paced sampling studio based in East London. As a high-end and ready-to-wear garment manufacturer and clothing development studio, Fabrika London offers a one-stop service for all needs, from measuring, pattern cutting, sample making, to fitting, alterations, and delivery. Their mission is to provide friendly, comprehensive, and uncompromising quality of service, building close and personal working relationships with clients.

Fabrika London’s engagement with the Global London Team began in August 2023, through UKFT and the Paris trade mission.

Before joining the programme, Fabrika London faced challenges with changing sales overseas and understanding the evolving landscape of wholesale and retail.

The Global London Programme provided one-on-one support, workshops, and a trade mission. Founder of Fabrika comments “the whole experience  with the trade mission was great. It was well organised and it was helpful to meet other businesses in the same industry with the same struggles as me. Speaking with the tradeshow and showroom owners helped to get clarity on how wholesale and retail has changed since Brexit.”

Since receiving support from the Global London Programme, Fabrika London has been in touch with some brands met at the tradeshows during the Paris trade mission. This has opened up potential new business opportunities as they can support these brands with manufacturing. Fabrika London also continues to engage with other companies met on the trade mission.
