About the Company / Business

Our names are Ruth, Alison and Joanna and we are all connected by the unusual family surname of Umpleby, so the natural name for the Company became Umpie Bags.

 

As with all WiRE members we have many interests from running a B&B, gardening, fundraising, music and acting and with Joanna's 20 years experience in handbag design and with our general background of soft furnishings and upholstery we started Umpie Bags.

All the bags are made in North Yorkshire and named after some of our female ancestors.

Connie, our regular handbag size is named after Alison’s Grandmother. Mabel, our smaller hand carry bag is named after Ruth & Joanna’s Gran. Gertie our weekender is named after our mutual Grandmother - a larger than life lady who enjoyed travelling therefore it seemed appropriate to name this bag in her memory.

It is important to us that Umpie Bags give value for money and we now provide an imaginative array of products which includes well chosen and designed seasonal accessories such as our new ponchies and scarves. Visit our website www.umpie.co.uk and have a browse or visit our stand at any of the listed forthcoming events.
