Who are we and what it’s all about…

Melissa & Adam

“As local makers, Holistic Earth & Adam Francis Illustrator, we wanted to create a platform where the makers of Macclesfield could get together and showcase what we all do. We each have our own style and unique product ranges, but often find it difficult to grow and attract new customers.

With MADE IN MACCLESFIELD, we have brought everybody together to showcase how creative Macclesfield is.

Most of our makers have no high street presence, other than local markets or stocking within local shops. By creating ‘Made in Macclesfield’, we can showcase a huge range of makers styles and products for you to browse and purchase from, in the knowledge that every pound you spend will directly benefit a very local, and grateful, maker.

Finally, this is not a money-making platform. The links on the maker’s profiles will take you directly to their own website/online store, where your purchase is 100% direct with them.

MADE IN MACCLESFIELD is purely about showcasing and celebrating the creativity of the Macclesfield makers and putting you and them together.”

ALL of our makers live (or make/design) in or around Macclesfield, however, we do operate a small level of discretion to our neighbouring area should we feel that they bring a unique product.


The various links will take you to the maker’s own website/shop.


Many makers will be delighted to offer you a free collection/delivery service, just ask before you order.


Some selling sites, like Etsy, take a large commission on sales. Before you make your purchase, why not ask the maker if there is a different way to purchase and help put a little more money in their pocket without costing you any extra.
