About us
Global interest in British design and manufacturing has never been higher and Samuel Groves is building on this golden opportunity by continuing to invest in manufacturing equipment to produce the very best cook and bakeware at their manufacturing site in Birmingham.
Every range produced at our factory, we believe is the best you can buy, whether that’s our robust Classic stainless steel cookware or timeless Mermaid bakeware.
Few suppliers of hospitality products go back as far as Samuel Groves. This venerable Birmingham-based manufacturer of kitchen equipment started in 1817. The big take-off into hospitality supply came during the Second World War when Samuel Groves won a major government contract to produce aluminium trays, with many other items for the Ministry of Works and the War Office being added soon after. This helped reinforce the foundations of the modern business, which gained a major boost from the introduction of the Mermaid brand at the beginning of the 1950s.
Samuel Groves encompasses all facets of manufacturing, including metal cutting, metal spinning, press-work, welding, fabrication and injection moulding. In addition, we are able to design and manufacture our own tooling in house.
The food we eat has changed over the years, in response, Samuel Groves has developed new products and methods of production and moved with the times. Furthermore, our quality standards and the materials used have all also improved. That said, we remain traditional manufacturers and every product we are proud to say is still hand-finished.

Design
Carbon steel is one of the oldest and most versatile types of cookware, with a history stretching back thousands of years.

Design
The Britannia range was developed to provide a cookware range that is undeniably versatile. When designing the range it was important that the pans construction allowed for them to be suited to a wide variety of cooking styles - from slow cooking stews on an open fire, to searing your favourite cut of steak on your kitchen stove.
Our cast iron cookware is compatible with all heat sources, including induction hobs. They are oven safe and can be seamlessly moved between the hob and the oven - they can also be used on the grill, BBQ and open fires. Cast iron is an effective heat distributor that provides superior heat retention, allowing the cookware to slowly gain and lose heat. The cookware's makeup allows it to be extremely durable and resistant to warping, denting and chipping.
