Many readers will know Mike Carden and Ian Pollard as representing Balmoral Knitwear in the corporatewear, embroidery and schoolwear markets for – between them – 50 years.
With their own business, Rannerdale, the pair have now teamed up with Charles Kirk & Co to offer similar and, in many cases, identical styles of stock and bespoke knitwear, after Balmoral Knitwear went into liquidation in February.
Charles Kirk & Co is a knitwear manufacturer of long-standing near Worthing. Working with the same yarn spinners and off-shore knitwear manufacturers that Balmoral used, Charles Kirk & Co is offering from stock the following corporate knitwear styles:
- WAVN 50% wool 50% acrylic pullovers.
- WASO 50% wool 50% acrylic sleeveless slipovers.
- SAVN 100% acrylic pullovers.
- With further styles to follow.
These are in addition to the stock schoolwear styles which Charles Kirk & Co offers.
In addition, Mike and Ian, working with Charles Kirk & Co, can supply off-shore and home-produced bespoke knitwear for corporatewear contracts, both large and small.
