AutoReel is an excellent example of British engineering and innovation – designed and made by my constituents – that has achieved success not only domestically but particularly in the export market: Hozelock products are sold in more than 60 countries. This year the company were the proud recipients of several awards for their export achievements. In the current economic climate British products that succeed abroad are absolutely essential to the British economy. Exports are a key part of the Government’s plan for growth and it is companies like Hozelock through products like AutoReel that will deliver this.

Hozelock is one of Britain's favourite gardening suppliers. They continually invest into keeping their product range up to date and they have a comprehensive range that covers garden watering, garden pressure sprayers, pond equipment and high pressure cleaners. They were founded on an airfield in 1959, in the village of Haddenham and, from their early days, their drive has always been to develop technically perfect, visibly striking products that are part of a system. Their first product was the world's first plastic hose connector, the Hoze-Lock. Today, their head office is in Birmingham (UK), and although they are a global garden equipment manufacturer, over 75% of their products are made in Britain.
