Afraid not, was just flicking through and saw Raleigh in the UK section, which I know a lot about as lived in the area of Nottingham it was once in. They offshored all their factories to cheaper Asian countries many years ago leaving just a small presence in the UK to sell and unpack the bikes. I can see only 130 UK staff (68 sales, 62 admin) so can't imagine they build anything here.

When I get some time I'll go through the list, at least the UK ones which I can find information about much more easily (our company data is open to all - not many countries have this)
