Holland and Sherry Ltd

Company Profile

Since 1836 Holland & Sherry has continued to supply prestigious tailors and luxury brands with some of the finest cloths in the world. Stephen George Holland and Frederick Sherry began the business as woollen merchants at 10 Old Bond Street, London, specialising in both woollen and silk cloths. In 1886 Holland & Sherry moved premises to Golden Square, at the time the epicentre of the woollen merchanting trade. By 1900 the firm was exporting to many countries, it was around that time a sales office was established in New York. In the early part of the 20th century, the United Kingdom, Europe, North and South America were the dominant markets for the company. By 1982 the business moved to Savile Row, which remains our registered head office. In 1968 Holland & Sherry bought Scottish cloth merchant Lowe Donald based at Peebles in the Scottish Borders and decided to locate their distribution from the purpose-built warehouse there. Of all the cloth merchants of Golden Square which were established in the late 1800s, only Holland & Sherry remains. Over the decades we have purchased nearly twenty other wool companies. We are constantly engaged in research for ever fine and more luxurious fibres and fabric qualities, sourcing the finest natural fibres ranging from Super 240s, cashmere to pure worsted Vicuna. Our cloths are woven in the time-honoured way to assured quality and good taste.
