Just what does “UK made” mean?
The vast majority of brands and products featured on YouK proudly bear the status of being 100% made in Britain.
However, we also recognise the complexity of today’s consumer landscape, where some exceptional brands and products are partially ‘UK made.’ In such cases, we take into account various factors, including the extent of UK-based research, design, assembly and the use of materials sourced within the UK.
This is made simpler with our exclusive scoring system - the YouK Score. This unique tool offers a quick, at-a-glance review of just how deeply rooted in the UK a product, or brand truly is.
Every brand or product showcased on YouK contributes, in one way or another, to the UK economy, often in significant ways, meaning they all deserve our support.

How you can help
How we are funded
YouK is the work of a small team of enthusiasts from all over the UK, and our intention is that it is always to be free for both users and business.
Some businesses do pay a small commission when we introduce customers, and others will be attracted by additional marketing, and we hope that this will enable us to keep going and continue to develop YouK.
