Ten Facts about Marshalls
1. We are proud of our Yorkshire heritage!
Our founder Solomon Marshall (1847-1914) lived in Brighouse with his wife and nine Children. In 1904 he established S.Marshalls & Sons and his first purchase of land at Southowram is still used by Marshalls today!
2. Streets of London
They say the streets of London are paved with gold: it’s actually paved with Marshalls' striking product!
In fact, we have paved every square on the Monopoly board.
3. Around the world from Eaglescliffe
Our site in Eaglescliffe, County Durham makes enough block paving in one year to orbit the world 41 times!
Our Edenhall business produces 120 million bricks a year – that’s enough to build 4,800 four bedroomed houses!
4. A Superbrand
We’re a Superbrand celebrating being voted one of the strongest brands in the UK for the 12th consecutive year.
Superbrands are rewarded with the title for their quality, reliability and distinction; helping us remain a Superbrand for the past decade.
5. Open & Transparent
We’re proud to say we pay our fair share of tax and to be Fair Tax accredited since 2015. The Fair Tax Mark, from the Fair Tax Foundation, indicates that a company is open and transparent about its tax affairs and seeks to pay the right amount of corporation tax at the right time.
In 2020, we paid back £9.4 million of furlough money and deferred VAT.
