Supporting Local Businesses in Sheffield and Birmingham

Livsstil Local Support - SheffieldLivsstil : Supporting local business and local people

Livsstil tries hard to source locally to minimise our carbon foorpint and to preserve jobs here in the UK. Local to our two offices in Sheffield and Birmingham we support :

Birmingham
Alan SIlverwood, top quality bakeware still made in the UK. Livsstil carries most of the Silverwood range in all 5 stores and are proud to support a local family business that's been thriving for over forty years who also strives to keep local people in work . In Silverwood's own words :

"At a time when shops are awash with products imported from around the globe, Silverwood bakeware stands out as a high-quality, long-lasting alternative to the "pile-it-high, sell-it-cheap" competition ... every product has been designed and manufactured here in our Birmingham factory. Many of the innovative designs are unique to us."

Sheffield
Staniforth, Smithfield Knives.  Staniforths have been making knives for over a hundred years now and we stock their general purpose cooks and catering ranges. In a push to keep our sourcing local, Livsstil commissioned (and had specially made) a fully forged range that offers quality and characterisitics close to the Wusthof range from Germany but at 40% of the price and without the transportation emissions. Staniforth also offer a unique service guarantee for repairs or sharpening up to 5 years after purchase. Still made here in Sheffield!

Taylors Eye Witness. Livsstil stocks TEW knives and sharpeners including probably the best pull-through sharpener for professional knives, The Chantry. Eye Witness has been going since the early 1800s and their factory has changed little in appearance (from the outside) in the last 160 years.
