About this company

Church & Co Limited is the registered UK entity behind Church's, a footwear manufacturer based in Northampton and incorporated in 1926. The company makes hand-crafted men's and women's shoes, boots, loafers and accessories, sold under the Church's brand through its own website and stores. It also offers in-store services such as personalisation, repairs and shoe care. Evidence indicates Church's forms part of the wider Prada Group, with the registered entity representing the UK manufacturing and trading operation rather than the group as a whole. Its core activity remains the design and manufacture of leather footwear, consistent with its classification as a footwear manufacturer.
