This summer I was lucky enough to get some work experience for a couple weeks in Corgi Hosiery factory which based in Ammanford, Carmarthenshire, conveniently my home town. Corgi is a family-run business, established in 1892. Corgi specialises in producing top-quality, fine gauge cashmere and cotton socks featuring eye-catching colourways and quirky patterns and motifs. They also make knitwear such as cardigans, jumpers, scarfs and hats.

I learnt many skills whilst being at Corgi, from the financial side of the business to the manufacturing of the products.
