Leicester Factories Spotlighted as Regional Rising Stars

A Leicester garment manufacturer, Sunny P. of Meesha Group, sits beside a colourful T-shirt design in a studio setting. The photo highlights his recognition as part of Leicester’s Regional Rising Stars in UK textile manufacturing.

ATMF is delighted to see Leicester’s garment manufacturers gaining recognition on a national stage.

The Times Entrepreneurs Network recently highlighted Leicester as home to many Regional Rising Stars—businesses with a turnover of under £6m that are thriving despite the challenges facing the wider industry.

The article (read it here) shone a spotlight on two outstanding ATMF members:

  • Sunny P., T-shirt alchemist and Chief Executive of Meesha Group
  • Michael Kler, Director of Who’s Who Ltd

Both businesses represent the creativity, innovation and resilience that Leicester manufacturers are known for.

We are proud to see our members recognised as part of this new wave of entrepreneurs driving forward UK textile and apparel manufacturing.

As always, we encourage buyers and brands to meet our members in person—most recently at Source Fashion, Olympia London (8–10th July)—and discover the quality, expertise, and heritage of Leicester’s supply chain.

This recognition reaffirms what we at ATMF see every day: Leicester is leading the way in shaping the future of sustainable and innovative garment production.
