Not long ago John Lewis sent an email sharing all the products that were made in the UK. If you search 'made in uk' on their app, 144 items come up including:
Denby, Darlington Crystal, Montezuma's chocolate are just a few to name.

One year I bought a winter coat from Hobbs because it was made in the UK.

VanDal shoes made in Norfolk. Expensive but worth it for my wide feet.
David Nieper ladies clothes made in Derbyshire. Love the catalogue, wish I could afford them.

Can anybody name any items of domestic equipment like, toasters, kettles, fridges etc that are made in the UK. Virtually everything seems to have a Made in China label on it these days.

Kenwood is British made. The site is in Havant, Hampshire.

No longer I'm afraid, the site is still there, as is a factory outlet, but manufacture moved overseas when De Longhi bought them out in 2001

Does the made in the UK question still count if the components/ingredients for the product are imported from overseas, like cocoa for chocolate?

Its a tricky one! Where do you draw the line? Yorkshire tea? Even things like Scotch Whisky can be legally sold as Scotch, yet have been made with imported grain. And nearly all whisky is matured in imported oak casks. I remember an ad in the 70's showing that an imported Volvo had a similar British content to a car from British Leyland...
