WELCOME TO THE SECOND MIDLANDSview
The Midland ’ s mix of heritage and modernity is reflected in every door and window produced here . It ’ s a region where history doesn ’ t just live in the past , but continues to shape the present and future of UK manufacturing .
» HERE , WE ’ VE PUT TOGETHER A SERIES OF articles from brands and businesses that epitomise everything that makes this region so significant in the supply chain . Why do global companies set up shop here ? What makes people want to work there ? Where do these products go and how do they help shape our industry ?
The region ’ s industrial past , paired with its modern , forward-thinking outlook , has produced a community that ’ s as resilient as it is creative , blending tradition with technology . But it ’ s not
just about the products — it ’ s about the people who make them . The Midlands is a place where diverse cultures , histories , and experiences intersect , creating a unique workforce driven by passion and pride in their work .
So , let this magazine be your map to the Midlands , its manufacturers , fabricators and suppliers …
See you next time ( or when we move onto the next region )…
