The UK’s largest and leading schoolwear supplier.
We’re the largest schoolwear supplier in the UK. We’re passionate about making every student look and feel great by producing sustainable, affordable and desirable schoolwear of the highest quality and supporting retailers with the best industry-leading service.
7
Schoolwear. We get it.
Setting new standards for sustainability, service and support. We’ve been at the forefront of our industry for quite some time so there isn’t much we don’t know about schoolwear. Our mission is to revolutionise the market by continually setting new standards for sustainability, service and support to improve the way we operate and deliver for all our customers.
8
Giving every child a chance to shine.
When we say we get schoolwear, we really mean it. Schoolwear doesn’t just define a school’s identity, it also defines the identity of every student who wears it. We believe schoolwear has the power to make a real difference in people’s lives, which is why we’re driven by our vision of giving every child a chance to shine. Creating comfortable, durable and sustainable schoolwear that enables all students to look and feel great.
We believe schoolwear has the power to make a real difference in people’s lives. 9
Investing in products, service and our planet. As the largest schoolwear supplier in the UK and still growing, we have a relentless desire to invest in all the things that matter most to our customers - the quality of our products, the calibre of our service and above all, doing the right thing for the planet. Our size means we’re uniquely positioned to think big and offer the very best solutions to our customers on product, service and sustainability. But we’ll never be too big to care and we proudly support independent retailers of all sizes. 10
Employing over 300 people across three sites in Trowbridge, Altrincham and Seaham, the company has achieved significant growth over the years, and in October 2021, acquired backing from Private Equity Investors, CBPE. The business is in a strong financial position and continues to invest heavily in stock, new product development, marketing and design, new technology and people, ensuring that we not only continue to supply our customers with innovative quality products and excellent service both now and in the future, but we centre our approach around making the supply of schoolwear as easy as possible.
What makes us tick. Service
Providing industry-leading service since 1851.
Sustainability
Building a greener, fairer future for everyone.
Support
Helping our customers every step of the way.
11
Proud of our history, passionate about the future. The Banner story goes all the way back to 1851 when Beau Brummel, our oldest wholesale brand, started supplying the finest bespoke uniforms to some of the most prestigious schools in the UK. This heritage is part of our DNA and although our business has changed a lot in that time, our focus remains exactly the same now as it was then - to be the leader in schoolwear across products and service. The only thing that’s changed is we now prioritise doing the right thing for the planet above everything else.

What we do.
15
16
Doing things differently.
The know-how, resources, investment and scale to deliver on the things that really matter. Schools come in all shapes and sizes, which is why we’ve developed a product range that meets every requirement. Our size and experience means we have the know-how, resources, investment and scale to deliver on the things that really matter to our customers. And we do it in the most sustainable and responsible way possible.
17
We create sustainable products that solve problems. Research & Inclusion.
We develop our ranges in close collaboration with retailers, schools, parents and students. Our design process starts with student focus groups and interactive workshops to understand their needs and we have previously worked with organisations like Mermaids UK on previous research projects to ensure our products are as inclusive as possible regardless of age, gender and size. We greatly recognise the necessity and demand for sustainable schoolwear and sportswear, which is why our focus remains on this exciting area of development.
18
Product Design.
We have an in-house team of expert product designers that work on every aspect of our ranges, from initial concept through to design and delivery. Our aim is to provide an inclusive and diverse range of sustainable schoolwear, making sure all our garments are available in sizes perfect for younger students too. We now consciously select materials that suit low washing temperatures to minimise energy consumption and are reducing our use of plastic through our revised eco product packaging initiative.
19
Testing. We’ve taken a leading stance on testing our products. Part of our design process involves testing the durability of our products to ensure they’re fit for purpose. We routinely test our products with independent testing houses and also compare our test results with competitors to ensure we remain the industry leaders in this area.
20
Manufacturing.
We’re in complete control of every process - from pattern development, fabric and colour selection and supplier production right through to final sign-off. This means we can easily implement new ways of improving our products and operations, as well as finding better solutions to reduce our environmental and social impact.
Schoolwear students love.
21
Personalisation.
We’ve invested in new embroidery machinery so we can embroider more than...
40,000 garments per week, including
10,000 in-house.
As a result, we’re able to offer our customers the biggest range of personalised products across the entire industry, complementing our huge range of stock-supported lines.
22
Marketing.
We pride ourselves on offering the best marketing support in the schoolwear industry. Offered free to all customers, our dedicated inhouse marketing team includes talented designers, photographers and copywriters to help customers showcase our ranges to schools, parents and students in the most engaging and exciting ways. 23
Value for money. Parents want to know their children’s uniform and sportswear will last until they grow out of it, providing exceptional value for money. Our products are independently tested on their durability, with ranges at a price point for every budget to give schools unrivalled choice to select the right products for their parents and pupils.
24
A total back-to-school solution.
We’re proud to offer the biggest and broadest range of schoolwear and sportswear in the market, available to order from stock all year round for next-day delivery. From stock-supported essentials to bespoke or made-to-order products, our carefully selected ranges have something for everyone at a price that suits them.

People & culture.
27
People who care and a place to prosper. We’re passionate about making a positive difference to student’s lives and minimising our impact on the planet. To do that, we work hard to attract and retain colleagues who share our values and our desire to innovate. Inclusive schoolwear starts with having an inclusive culture. Our dedicated People & Culture and leadership teams ensures everyone at Banner is recognised and valued for what they bring to the company. Whatever their role, everyone can make a difference and everyone has a part to play.
28
Our people.
We’re a people-focused business and our values are at the core of what we do. They not only reflect who we are currently, but also how we want to positively shape our culture going forward. We invest in our people from day one. Their passion and talent is integral for driving our business to progress and grow, so it’s our responsibility to support them to progress and grow with it.
Our culture.
We believe work should be rewarding, making the most of our talents to enhance both the business and our lives. In working together, we’re bonded by a mutual commitment to our collective wellbeing, our workplace values and the sustainable success of the company.
29
Colleague experience vision...
Belonging.
2026
All colleagues should feel at home in the workplace, able to give the best of themselves, finding purpose in what they do and the difference they make. We believe that we work best when we support each other, embracing challenges and continually improving.
Enabling.
Colleagues are trusted to make decisions, taking ownership of their role and responsibilities for the benefit of the business. We believe that everyone’s voice should be heard and that diversity and difference makes us stronger, widening our perspectives and improving overall performance.
Flourishing.
Every colleague should have the opportunity to fulfil their potential, growing as individuals and in their careers during their time with Banner.
30
We believe the success of the company and its people are intertwined and that we should be there for each other in the moments that matter.
Diversity, Equality & Inclusion. Our ambition is to create an environment that embraces Diversity, Equality and Inclusion (DEI) by enabling, educating and supporting our internal and external stakeholders, resulting in new opportunities for everyone in society. We achieve this by developing and implementing realistic DEI strategies and policies together so that they make a real difference, as well as training our colleagues on DEI in order to apply it in their day-to-day working lives.
31
Our values.
We live by five values, SMILE for short, that support our ambition and guide us on our journey. Together, they help to make Banner the best company to work for in the industry.
Service is everything • Earn our customers’ loyalty and trust. • Go the extra mile to deliver. • Take pride in playing your part.

In it together

Smile. No Limits
• Keep raising the bar. • Step out of your comfort zone. • Try new things.

Sustainable schoolwear to be proud of.
Something for every school. Every school and student is different, so it’s important they have the widest choice of uniform that meets their needs, whenever they need it. Our uniform range is the biggest and broadest in the industry with something to meet every taste, requirement and budget. We’re also proud to provide retailers, schools and parents with the opportunity to clothe students in a full head-to-toe eco uniform and sportskit. Up to 2/3 of our product range is now made from sustainable fabrics. From high-quality stock lines available for next-day delivery to the finest bespoke tailored garments, our uniform ranges have it all. Designed in-house by our expert product development team to ensure they’re built to last and meet the needs of modern students.
37
Blazers and jackets.
The iconic Banner blazer and jacket collections are steeped in rich heritage – from the traditional threepatched pocket Ziggys blazer to the new innovatively styled Signature jacket. Our blazers and jackets are not only timeless but provide a modern fit too, as well as being durable and built to last. They’re also mde from a variety of sustainable fabrics that offer different aesthetic or functional purposes, including 100% recycled polyester (PET) certified to Gold Standard for all main outer fabric and internal linings.
38
Options to suit you.
All our blazers and jackets vary in design, fit and style to offer schools and students plenty of choice. Our four suiting options offer flattering blends of fabrics and styles for schools that want matching colours in jackets, trousers and skirts. 39
Knitwear. Knitwear has become a popular addition to school uniforms, either as a standalone garment or underneath blazers and jackets. We have an extensive knitwear range to choose from, including traditional V-neck jumpers, slipovers and cardigans. All our knitwear has a raglan sleeve to provide added comfort and shape, while rib cuffs and welts offer extra support and durability. 40

Sustainable sportswear that performs.
Fastest growing school sportswear brand in the UK. In 2015, our product development team recognised that school sportswear needed to change. Students wanted performance fabrics and modern designs, the kind of garments they’d look and feel great wearing outside of school. We worked with schools and students to design the most contemporary and high-performing sportswear range in the market with one aim - to inspire students of any age, gender and body type to get involved in school sports with confidence. Today, our APTUS sportswear range is the fastest growing school sportswear brand in the UK, helping millions of children to give their best in games and PE. Not only that, it’s transitioned to more sustainable fabrics too - reflecting our dedication to doing the right thing for the planet and future generations. 51
52
1.
Quality APTUS Performance products were designed to meet the diverse needs of today’s students and PE teachers. Every garment has a stylish aesthetic and overall distinctive look, no matter the activity. But most of all, they provide exceptional performance time and again, meeting the demanding requirements of school sportswear.
2.
Performance Designed using a combination of lightweight breathable fabrics along with 3D dimple mesh panels, all Performance garments are created to be comfortable and effective during physical activity.
3.
Innovation We collaborate with students, teachers, fabric specialists and product professionals to continuously evolve the performance needs of our products and stay at the forefront of sportswear technology and innovation.
53
Designed with women and girls. In addition to our core range, our female-specific products were designed in close consultation with female PE staff and students to encourage participation with garments that flatter, boost body confidence and ultimately perform.
54
55
56
The performance range is made using recycled materials, so students can look good while helping to do good for the planet too. 57
Gender-neutral, entry-level sportswear. Launched as a gender-neutral, entry-level sportswear collection, APTUS Essentials is aimed at both the primary and secondary school market and was inspired by our work with Mermaids UK, a charity supporting children and young people who are gender diverse.
All products in the Essentials range can be coordinated with our Performance range, as well as made-to-order. 58
Junior Collection.
The APTUS Essentials Junior collection combines modern design with functionality, providing the perfect solution for primary schools in need of a stylish PE kit that students look great in and want to wear.
Senior Collection.
The APTUS Essentials Senior Collection caters for secondary school students with garments designed to encourage them to get stuck into school sports. The Collection offers additional items such as our Essentials Skort and Multisport Shirt to create a versatile sports kit for older students.

Head to toe in eco by 2025.
75% of our product offering is now eco and by 2025 we aim to transition to 100%. Our sustainability journey began in 2019 when we set about embracing our responsibility to do the right thing for our planet and the future. We decided to tranform our approach to sustainability and put these challenges right at the heart of our business, starting with our products.
Making our products eco.
Since our journey began, we’ve had a clear vision. We want every garment we produce to make a positive impact on our planet, the people we work with and the students who ultimately wear our products every day.
The biggest eco range in the industry. Fast forward to today and we’re now proud to offer our customers the biggest and broadest range of schoolwear and sportswear that’s responsibly sourced and manufactured with sustainable materials.
69
The biggest eco range in the industry. Blazers & jackets.
The full Signature, Ziggy and Designer ranges have now transitioned to eco and are made from 100% recycled polyester (PET) certified to Gold Standard for all main outer fabric and internal linings. The sustainable fabric for our blazers and jackets contains up to 48 recycled plastic bottles.
Blouses, shirts and t-shirts.
70
Our blouse and shirt products have all transitioned to eco with updated sustainable packaging. Our Champion Tee is made from 100% cotton and is OEKOTEX Standard 100 certified, which means that every component of the garment has been tested for harmful substances.
Trousers.
Our boys trousers have also made the transition over to eco, created from 65% recycled polyester and 35% biodegradable viscose main fabric. Up to 11 plastic bottles are recycled to produce to polyester for each of these styles.
Skirts.
100% of the polyester used in the girls trouser and skirt styles that have transitioned to eco is produced from recycled bottles. That’s up to 17 recycled bottles per product. We’ve also added waist-adjusters into all our girls’ skirts for our eco transition.
Sweats, jog pant and polo.
The Classic range of sweatshirts, jog pant and polo have all transitioned to eco. The Classic Polo fabric is produced from up to 15 recycled plastic bottles and all our Classic Sweat product is OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified.
71
Leading the way with sustainability. A framework for change.
We’re continually working to improve all aspects of our environmental and social responsibility, minimising the impacts of our operations on the planet, while at the same time optimising the benefits of what we do for our people and the people we work with. It’s why we’re recognised as the schoolwear supplier that’s leading the way in sustainability.
72
Our six sustainability pillars.
We want every product that we produce to make a positive impact on our planet, the people we work with and the students who ultimately wear our garments every day. To help us achieve this, we’ve developed a very clear and holistic sustainability strategy built on six key pillars.
Supply Chain
Environment
Product
Community
Customer
People
We ensure the overseas supplier factories producing our brochure stock are all Sedex members and audited to ensure compliance with Sedex 4 Pillar / SMETA Audits, which includes extended business ethics and environmental measures.
We’re giving back to local community projects and charities with fundraising and our Gift of Time volunteering programme for employees.
We’re focused on reducing our environmental footprint and maintaining our carbon-neutral status. We’re also working with our supplier factories to reduce water consumption, waste and conserve energy.
We actively engage with our customers to get their views on eco issues, as well as record and act on their feedback to shape our future strategy and green initiatives. We’re also supporting their sustainability journey and delivering a faultless service.
We design and source the best products sustainably and have launched a full range of innovative eco products made from recycled polyester and biodegradable viscose.
We ensure our employees’ voices are heard through an annual engagement survey and “pulse” surveys to ensure they feel “safe, supported and understood” and also through a structured programme of well-being, mental health support and engagement activities.

74
Reducing environmental impact.
Together for our planet. In our business, the planet is a key stakeholder, just like the children who wear our schoolwear and the communities we serve. This means we embrace our responsibility to put back into nature what we take out of it, striving to minimise the environmental impact of our operations in every way we can. The environment is a huge part of our sustainability strategy. And while we’ve achieved a lot so far, we intend to go bigger, better and bolder with our environmental commitments, investing in projects that reduce our emissions and reduce or eliminate any detrimental impact on biodiversity. 75

Re-evaluate the financial viability of installing a large solar PV system on the Canal Road warehouse roof in Trowbridge to provide 10% annual reductions in our emissions.
3.

5.

6.
Keep working to find a sustainable and commercial solution to recycle/re-purpose textiles at end of life and get used surplus textiles back into the supply chain.
7.
Develop a transformational packaging strategy that delivers a net positive impact on the environment and reduces our plastic footprint by 50% by 2025, as well as 100% of our plastic and carbon packaging being sourced from recycled materials, not virgin sources.
8.
Improve waste management and better recycling across all sites through closer monitoring of waste collections, better education on categories of waste and wider employee engagement through our “Waste Nothing” campaigns.

Setting the standard in ethical sourcing.
Doing the right thing.
We’re confident we’ve developed the most sustainable and ethical supply chain in our industry, backed up by strong independent accreditations. Since 2006, we’ve been a member of Sedex (Supplier Ethical Data Exchange), one of the world’s leading ethical trade service providers, as part of our commitment to improving the working conditions in global supply chains. Our work so far has resulted in us becoming the first UK schoolwear supplier to set Sedex 4-Pillar as the minimum audit standard for all our suppliers to comply with. This means all our suppliers are independently assessed to the highest requirements in crucial areas such as fair pay, labour standards, health & safety, business ethics and environmental impact.

Achieve greater transparency of the environmental impacts of our supply chain by supporting our suppliers to join Sedex once the Higg Index has been integrated.
2.
Commit to measuring our full Scope 3 carbon footprint, which will involve collating data from all our suppliers in 2022.
3.
Reduce emissions and pollution by switching to 100% green energy across our factories and incorporating new targets and supplier standards as part of their reduction plans in Q3 2022.

Maintain the same level of accountability in terms of ethical and environmental standards for our retail supply chain.
10.
Ensure all factories complete a Sedex selfassessment questionnaire to help us manage our supply chain and mitigate social and environmental risks, as well as carry out our own inspections as soon as it’s safe to do so.
85
86
Supporting our communities & charities.
Making a positive difference. We’re setting new standards for supporting the communities we work in around the globe. A number of our supplier factories have implemented community support programmes focused on doing good in the localities where they’re based, such as providing safe drinking water and essential basic necessities that directly benefit their workers and families in a tangible way.
Giving back where it matters. Through our Gift of Time initiative, our workplace colleagues are highly engaged in fundraising and giving back to support local communities here in the UK too, genuinely seeking to provide help where and when it’s needed most. Together, we want to become a force for good and make a real difference in people’s lives.
87
Supporting our communities & charities.

3.
Widen engagement and drive participation in the Gift of Time programme.
