On Saturday, we celebrated International Women’s Day! We’re championing the women in our workplace, shining the spotlight on their outstanding achievements. Here’s some of the inspiring women we celebrate now and every day at Whitemeadow 👏 ⚡️”During my employment, I’ve had access to professional training, which has enabled me to become a qualified accountant, go for internal promotions and gain the position of Head of Finance. By investing in my professional growth, my time at Whitemeadow has empowered me to recognise my self-worth, showcase my skills and embrace new challenges.” - Jo Steele ⚡️“I’ve found managing childcare much easier after returning from maternity leave with Whitemeadow’s flexibility, and I felt supported coming back into the workplace.” - Roxann Mendham ⚡️”Since I joined almost 25 years ago, Whitemeadow has supported my career progression, giving me the confidence to take on a leadership role. Now, my daughter Ebony is also a colleague who is gaining valuable skills and confidence with the support of the great team here at Whitemeadow.” - Heather Gale This year’s theme is #AccelerateAction - a call to push forward, break barriers, and create lasting change. #IWD2025 #WomenInFurniture #AccelerateAction #InternationalWomensDay

About us
Whitemeadow is the largest independently owned upholstery manufacturer in Britain today, producing a wide range of sofas and upholstered bed frames for many of the country’s blue-chip high-street brands and premium independent retailers. Situated in the heart of the upholstery manufacturing centre of the UK, Whitemeadow began in 1994, handcrafting products in our Nottinghamshire factory. Fast forward to today and we’re proud to maintain our commitment to craftmanship, now on a much larger scale. As a major employer in the local area, we currently employ over 500 colleagues over 6 sites, all within a 2-mile radius which totals over 200,000 ft2 of manufacturing space. Focussing on design leadership, an efficient production process and attention to quality, we have grown to become one of Britain’s leading upholstery manufacturers. When it comes to upholstery we really know what we're talking about and enjoy working closely with our retail customers to ensure their collections meet current demand in terms of quality, style, colour and texture. This requires us to keep at the forefront of innovation and maintain a constant eye on how the emerging fashion trends influence furniture design - all essential in ensuring we give our retail customers designs that suit our changing lifestyles so important to the modern consumer.
