Richard Brendon a recipient of the King’s Award for Enterprise 2024

London-based tableware brand Richard Brendon is a recipient of the King’s Award for Enterprise: International Trade 2024.

A total of 257 businesses received the award this year but Richard Brendon was the only tableware producer.

This award is testament to Richard Brendon’s strong and consistent growth in international business over the last three years. Export business has been incredibly challenging in the past few years with the combination of the pandemic, the impact of the atrocities in Ukraine and the knock-on effects following Brexit. The Richard Brendon team have been focused and driven to overcome these challenges and the results have been phenomenal.

The United States is Richard Brendon’s largest export market, and the company has recently entered new markets in the Middle East and East Asia.

The King’s Awards for Enterprise are the most prestigious awards for UK business, designed to recognise and encourage outstanding achievements in the fields of Innovation, International Trade, Sustainable Development and Promoting Opportunity (through social mobility).
