Key Points

  • Bisley competes against King Gee, Hard Yakka and FXD in Australia.
  • The UK workwear market is growing at 5.5 per cent annually.
  • Stealth already sells Bisley to miners and drilling companies in Africa.

Australian workwear brand Bisley is betting British tradies will ignore the Brexit wobbles and keep spending as it makes a big push into the $1 billion market.

It has joined forces with ASX-listed Stealth Global in a joint-venture company designed to tap into a robust category in the UK growing at 5.5 per cent a year.
