DESPITE having opened a new 35,000 sq ft headquarters in Henley, Bremont’s founders say their mission is far from accomplished.
Nick and Giles English launched their watch-making venture from the former’s home in 2002, aiming to revive the sector in Britain as it was declining in the face of foreign competition.
Now the brothers say their two-storey base at Sheephouse Farm, off Reading Road, will allow them to hire more staff and ramp up production of their luxury mechanical timepieces.
They have 130 staff, including operators who build parts on site and specialists who assemble the finished product in airtight rooms.
