About
Country of Origin is a modern knitwear brand founded by Ben Taylor and Alice Liptrot.

Everything is crafted with care at our purpose-built factory in Wigston, Leicestershire.
-
With an emphasis on strong color palettes and high-quality yarns, we supply a curated collection of knitwear for modern living.

-
Our company began in a small railway arch in South London.
-
-
Our ambition was to oversee the manufacturing process as closely as possible to ensure we produced highly crafted knitwear and fair working practices for the people making it.
-
-
With just 2 knitting machines and a small team, our orders quickly outgrew our capacity to fulfill them.
Then by chance...
-
A meeting with industry veterans Saïd and Keith set a new partnership in motion that saw the opening of our new factory in Wigston, pursuing the same values but on a much larger scale.
-
Between them, Saïd and Keith have more than 70 years of experience in the industry. We firmly believe: If this duo doesn't know something about knitwear, it mustn't be worth knowing.
