With over 100 years of experience Bennett Silks is the UK's leading wholesaler and convertor of silk fabrics.

The company was founded in 1904 by William Henry Bennett in Manchester, the heart of Britain's Textile Industry.

Having started out as an agent for many types of fabrics, primarily for the clothing industry, the company rapidly expanded and decided to deal only in top quality fabrics, of which silk was the obvious choice. Thus William Henry Bennett became one of the twentieth centuries first Englishman to establish trade links with the Chinese Silk Fabrics Industry, links which are still strong today.

The company is still entirely in the Bennett family's hands, run by William Henry Bennett's great grandsons Mike and Chris, who are leading the company through further expansion with the establishment of substantial silk weaving interests in Europe, India, China, Thailand.
