About

Walpole is the sector body for the British luxury industry which is worth £81bn to the UK economy, supports over 450,000 jobs and contributes 3.7% of the UK's GDP. A not-for-profit organisation, Walpole speaks on behalf of more than 250 of Britain's finest brands including Alexander McQueen, Aston Martin, Burberry, Claridge's, Fortnum & Mason, Glenfiddich, Harrods, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars and Wedgwood, and is recognised in both Westminster and Brussels.

With a mission to promote, protect and develop the business of luxury in the UK, Walpole brings its members together to collaborate and connect.

It also provides a collective voice for luxury on key topics, commissions industry-leading research and works with government on issues affecting the sector.

Walpole runs the flagship Brands of Tomorrow programme to develop new British luxury brands – alumni include Bremont, Emilia Wickstead, Nyetimber and Orlebar Brown – and works with the London Business School MBA programme to help develop the talent of the future with ‘Luxury Leaders of Tomorrow'. Walpole also spearheads the British Luxury Sustainability Manifesto, with the vision of making British luxury the global benchmark for luxury sustainability.
