Manufacturers Hub is the UK’s freshest and most dedicated directory built exclusively for UK manufacturers, and for businesses worldwide that supply the products and services keeping our incredible industry running.


In just 10 months, more than 340 businesses have already joined us.

We’ve welcomed over 10,000 visitors from Google and generated over 80,000 page views—proof that we’re not just live; we’re active, visible, and working hard for our members.

We’ve also grown our presence on LinkedIn to over 6,200 followers on our business page, and 20,000+ across our personal accounts, made up of engineers, directors, buyers, and key decision-makers across UK manufacturing. And that’s growing by nearly 1,000 new followers every month—because we’re putting in the work every single day to get exposure for our members.


And unlike some of the old-guard organisations, let’s be clear:

We are not an association.

We are not a chamber of commerce.

We are not run by suits chasing margins.

We are engineers, and we built this for you.


Made by Engineers, for the Industry

Manufacturers Hub is proudly run by two experienced manufacturing engineers, with over 50 years' combined service in Automation, Aerospace, Motorsports, and General Manufacturing.

We’ve been on the shop floor. We’ve led production teams. We’ve solved real problems in real businesses.

We’re not about red tape and politics—we’re about visibility, connection, and results.


This platform was created to level the playing field and give every UK manufacturer and industry supplier a fair shot at being found and winning work.


We’re Here for the Doers—Not the Gatekeepers

Too many small and mid-sized businesses get locked out of opportunity by old systems, exclusive circles, and over-complicated networks.

We’re flipping that script. We give our members:

✔️ Front-row exposure

✔️ A place to be found

✔️ A place to get work

✔️ A place to get busy


No handshake clubs. No pointless pat-on-the-back rewards or studiously priced memberships. Just real, usable visibility.
