Craftplay Factory Shop

In 2003 Anthony Peters opened an on-site Factory Shop selling over-runs and discontinued lines to the public, local organisations and small independent retailers. Craftplay carries a huge selection of art and craft materials for the budding artist or creative youngster including the full Anthony Peters's product range, paints, glues, pencils, chalks, face paints, paper, activity kits and party bag items. Craftplay also stocks our innovative and very popular Young Gardener range. We offer a 10% discount to local childminders, nurseries, playgroups and schools.

The Craftplay Factory Shop will soon be opening an online shop at www.craftplay.com; bringing fantastic savings on arts and crafts products, direct from one of the UK's leading manufacturers, to the rest of the UK, europe and further afield. Mail order is available now.

The Official Great British Factory Shop Guide

Anthony Peters are also the proud publishers of The Official Great British Factory Shop Guide. Following the opening of Craftplay we wished to advertise in the Factory Shop Guide series. Discovering the series had been out of print for 7 years we tracked down the authors and publishers, Gillian Cutress and Rolf Stricker, and negotiated the rights to publish the guide. In autumn 2005 we produced a brand new, completely updated edition of The Official Great British Factory Shop Guide, going to what is probably one of the most unusual lengths a shop has gone to to obtain some advertising!

For over 20 years and 75 editions The Official Factory Shop Guide series has been the quintessential reference point for consumers wanting savings of up to 75% on everything from apricot jam to zebra print rugs. For more information about purchasing, stocking or appearing the guide or hints and tips on factory shopping please visit www.factoryshopguide.com or email info@factoryshopguide.com.
