Our Story
Our journey began in 1987 by selling end of line sports products directly to customers in the UK. Now more than 30 years on, we're one of Europe's leading online off-price retailers with over 3 million active customers. We also have numerous dedicated local market websites across Europe and deliver to 25+ countries worldwide.
In 2014 MandM Ltd was purchased by Danish fashion group Bestseller. Bestseller is owned and run by Anders Holch Povlsen, after inheriting the business from his parents. Anders has grown Bestseller into one of the largest companies in the fashion retail industry.
We've previously had some of our products appear on Steph's Packed Lunch, we sponsored The Simpsons on Channel 4 and we make an effort to support worthy causes like St Michael's Hospice.
Our success is down to our commitment and passion for seeking out the biggest Fashion, Sport and Outdoor brands and giving them to you at the lowest prices all year round.
Unlike other online retailers, we don't do discount codes or promotions - just your favourite brands all with up to 65% less than RRP.
Trustpilot is a digital review platform that focuses on inspiring trust & collaboration, whilst also helping consumers shop with confidence. Since its founding in 2007, Trustpilot now has over 120 million consumer reviews.
At MandM, we have been collecting reviews and currently hold a strong rating on Trustpilot - based on over 50,000 reviews.
Our Mission = Big Brands Low Price Direct to you
At MandM we’re proud to be different.
We want to give you the biggest brands at the lowest prices you'll find.
How do we do it?
The answer is simple - we buy directly from brands, licensees and suppliers.
Just like you, we're always hunting for a bargain.
“The world’s finest cashmere, sensibly priced and expertly crafted into beautiful, modern styles to make you feel special and look terrific”
That was the goal when Nick Falkingham founded Pure Collection fifteen years ago and it remains at the heart of what we do today.
Since our beginning in 2002 Pure Collection has become one of the largest independent direct and online retailers of cashmere in the world. Today we sell over 700,000 pieces a year with boutiques in Tunbridge Wells, York, Reigate, Guildford, Marlow, Northcote Road - London, Chichester and within concessions in John Lewis stores.
We’ve grown in other ways too.
When our customers asked us for beautiful clothes to complement Pure Collection cashmere, we launched our successful women’s wear range. That was in 2007 and we haven’t looked back since. This collection of clothing and accessories are designed with the same luxury philosophy as our cashmere collection.
The business has evolved from a classic start up to a dynamic, fast paced and highly respected organisation, led by an established team of highly qualified experts and professionals. In 2015 our turnover exceeded £40m from a database of over 400,000 customers. Our ambition is to grow to £100m turnover over the next 5 years and be recognised as a well respected truly multinational company.
We call Harrogate in North Yorkshire our home. This beautiful spa town, close to the Dales. has helped to attract some of the best talent in the industry with its sophisticated shops, restaurants and beautiful surroundings it provides a wonderful setting in which to work.

Scotts and Co. is a multi-channel retail business including the brands “Scotts of Stow”, “The Original Gift Company” and “Bloom”; the business largely trades with its customers through mail order supported by three flagship retail outlets based in Stow-on-the-Wold and an increasingly successful web business.
Online still only represents around a third of all transactions and as a business we are now working on a strategy to change this; moving customers to either transact online or become pureplay shoppers. There are a number of approaches we are taking to deliver this including increasing our web only ranges and delivering a true multichannel experience.
We are looking to improve our Customer Experience, improve our websites and deliver a strong CRM program.
Scotts has over 25 years of Cotswold Heritage, and has utilised this to help the group’s business grow significantly with net sales exceeding £60m. The business is privately owned with sites in Swindon and Stow-on-the-Wold.
