Created in 1981, we make high quality and great value outdoor gear for the whole family. Regatta has benefited from over 80 years and three generations of experience in the manufacture of high quality waterproofs. Keith Black and his sister, Joanne, head up the company. They follow in the footsteps of their father and grandfather who also made outerwear but in different businesses. We now export to over 54 countries worldwide and have dedicated sales offices in France, Belgium, Ireland, Germany, Holland, Spain, Poland, Italy, Finland, Czech Republic and Israel. There are also a number of dedicated showrooms across the UK, used to showcase the very latest products. HQ is in Trafford Park, Manchester, home to all key departments including: sales, buying, design, marketing, planning, imports, export, accounts, IT and HR. State of the art warehousing covers 580,000 sq feet, through which over 15 million units are shipped every year. Regatta, as one of the last family owned outdoor clothing brands in the country, is hugely proud of its reputation for excellence and employee relations. Many of our staff have been with the company for decades and the entire company is dedicated to ensuring that all our customers have great quality gear that doesn't cost a fortune.

    🌟 Yesterday, we had the privilege of visiting Professor Adam Greenstein and his exceptional team of scientists at The University of Manchester. They shared inspiring updates on their ground breaking journey to develop a treatment for Alzheimer’s Disease and Vascular Dementia, and we were even given a tour of the lab where the real magic happens! Thanks to the support of the Regatta Foundation, their research has reached incredible new heights. This funding has allowed the team to dive deeper, head overseas to collaborate with global experts, and bring invaluable knowledge back to Manchester. We’re thrilled to see their work progressing to the next stage in partnership with a drug discovery team. A huge congratulations to Pr. Greenstein and his fellow lead researcher, Dr. Harry Pritchard, who were recently honoured with a British Heart Foundation Hero Award for their pioneering vascular dementia research. Their studies have uncovered a potential new approach to addressing the vascular causes of dementia, a significant step forward in this critical field.👏 #Research #DementiaAwareness #RegattaFoundation #InnovationInScience #ManchesterUniversity #UoM

The advert highlights the warmth, quality, and protection our products offer, while capturing the special outdoor moments spent with friends and family. The campaign goes beyond TV, supported by outdoor advertising, digital, social, retail, and influencer activations. We're looking forward to seeing the impact of this omnichannel campaign.

    On World Suicide Prevention Day our Mental Health First Aiders re-introduced themselves to colleagues across the business and let them know that they are there to talk. With plenty of biscuits and a hot brew - we encourage everyone to start the conversation. Here is Karen from our Sales Support team, she has her brew ready and this is what she had to say on being a Mental Health First Aider. "I signed up for the Mental Health First Aid team not longer after I joined Regatta. I do think that talking about about how we are feeling and breaking down the stigma around mental health is so very important - the more we talk about things the less overwhelming they can become. The MHFA team have regular meetings to come up with ideas to remind people that we are here if they need a brew and / or a chat." If you or someone you know needs help, contact the Samaritans at https://lnkd.in/giTkzEs Regatta Ltd Dare 2b Craghoppers #wspd
