About Edge

Design and manufacture for the retail environment

Edge Retail designs and manufactures retail environments for the world’s leading beauty, fragrance and fashion houses. Founded in 2006 and based in Leicester, we work as a genuine partner rather than a vendor: our goal is to become an integral part of your business, not just deliver against a brief and move on to the next one.

We offer a seamless, end-to-end service: concept, technical development, graphic design and print, project management, in-house manufacture, installation and after-sales support. A dedicated team of designers, technical developers, project managers and production staff work together on every project, which is what lets us deliver efficiently and to a consistently high standard, rather than a standard that varies from job to job.

That process is tailored to you, not templated. Whichever brand we’re working with, the hands-on method stays the same: understand what you actually need, build it properly, and stand behind it after installation, so the result helps your brand grow and excel rather than simply fill a floor.

Our Credentials & Values

Edge Retail’s commitment to excellence is officially certified, which gives clients complete peace of mind before a single unit leaves our factory. Sustainability sits at the core of how we operate, not as an afterthought bolted on for marketing purposes.

Our commitment to excellence is officially certified, providing our clients with peace of mind.

We hold an EcoVadis Silver award, placing us in the top 15% of all companies assessed. EcoVadis is one of the world’s most comprehensive sustainability rating tools, helping organisations improve their environmental, social and ethical performance and ensuring transparency across the supply chain. For a manufacturer, that’s not a marketing badge; it’s an audit of how we actually make things.

We have achieved SafeContractor accreditation, which showcases our health and safety proficiency and assures clients that we meet the standards and regulations that matter on a live site. Alcumus SafeContractor supports over 50,000 organisations globally and simplifies compliance across health and safety, sustainability and ethical behaviour. It’s independent proof of competence and care, not just our own word for it.

We were awarded the Gold POPAI award in the Short Run/Temporary Display category for the Jo Malone travelling townhouse that toured Heathrow Terminal 2. It’s recognised as one of the industry’s benchmarks for point-of-sale and display craftsmanship, judged by peers who know exactly how difficult a temporary structure is to get right.

We’re Cyber Essentials certified, a robust, government-backed scheme proven to protect organisations against cyber-attacks. For clients trusting us with unreleased product designs and launch details ahead of time, that’s part of the deal, not an optional extra.

Sustainability in Practice

We’ve installed recycling facilities in every department and work to reuse and recycle all materials wherever we can. Metals are collected separately for bulk recycling, and wood off-cuts fuel our furnace rather than going to waste. We’ve refurbished our building’s original windows rather than replace them, and we’ve moved our vehicle fleet over to hybrid and electric models. None of this is a single initiative; it’s the accumulation of a lot of small decisions made the same way, year after year, which is really the only way a sustainability commitment holds up under scrutiny.

  • Vision

    To help our clients design, develop, produce and install retail promotions, furniture and interiors worthy of the world's most exacting brands. We want to keep setting the standard for what a temporary or promotional retail space can be, not just fill the brief in front of us.

  • Approach

    Our team loves getting hands-on. The dedicated team of creative designers, development engineers, project managers, account managers and production staff all work together to create an efficient process for delivering your goals, rather than passing a project between departments that rarely speak to each other.

  • Integral

    Our aim is to be regarded as an integral part of your business, providing a personal, friendly and unique service with practical solutions that help your brand grow and excel beyond expectations. We tailor our service to your individual requirements, because the right outcome for one brand rarely looks like the right outcome for another.
