Made in Yorkshire is the region’s largest membership organisation dedicated to supporting and celebrating the success of local manufacturing. We unite business leaders from SME manufacturers across West, South, North and East Yorkshire—creating a strong, collaborative network that’s committed to raising the profile of UK industry and tackling common challenges together.
As part of Made in Group, we connect Yorkshire’s vibrant manufacturing community with hundreds of manufacturers across the Midlands and beyond—offering our members a powerful national platform while keeping their regional identity and relationships at the heart of everything we do.
Our mission is to strengthen and futureproof UK-owned SME manufacturers through meaningful connections, shared learning, and collective visibility. The Leeds Manufacturing Festival aligns perfectly with that mission—spotlighting local success stories, inspiring the next generation, and helping to build a more connected, resilient and proudly Yorkshire-led manufacturing sector.
“We’re excited to be supporting Leeds Manufacturing Festival, not just as a sponsor, but as a passionate advocate for everything it stands for. It’s an important platform for raising awareness of the brilliant opportunities that exist within manufacturing here in West Yorkshire and for showing young people the vibrant, modern and future-focused industry that they can be a part of. Collaborating with LMF allows us to champion the next generation while continuing to support the businesses that make this region such a manufacturing powerhouse.”
