With only two days left until the big day, most of London seems to be buzzing with anticipation; Regent Street is now swathed with Union Jacks, and plans for street parties and celebrations are being discussed wherever we go. We must admit that we are rather looking forward to a day of nationwide celebrations and good cheer! We’ve decorated our boutique windows, have the finger sandwiches and cakes at the ready and look forward to toasting the Royal couple on Friday.
Not knowing too much about how your government works, what’s a “Royal Warrant” as it applies to your store/product?
Hi Styrch
This is a great question (and I’m sure you’re not alone).
In the words of the Royal Warrants Holders Association; “Royal Warrants are a mark of recognition to individuals or companies who have supplied goods or services for at least five years to HM The Queen, HRH The Duke of Edinburgh or HRH The Prince of Wales. Warrants have always been regarded as demonstrating excellence and quality, and are highly prized.
There are around 850 Royal Warrant Holders representing a huge cross-section of trade and industry. They range from traditional craftspeople to global and multinational firms operating at the cutting edge of technology.”
You can read a little more on their website.
