Cheaney

Cheaney is an English shoe brand established by Joseph Cheaney in 1886. In 1896, Joseph and his son Arthur moved to the site the factory occupies today. For its first 80 years the factory made shoes exclusively for retailers around the world, branded to their requirements, before the company built up its own Cheaney brand for home and export markets. The business was sold to Church's English Shoes in 1964, and in 2009 Jonathan and William Church bought the company. Cheaney footwear is made in England in Northamptonshire, and the brand states it combines 140 years of shoemaking expertise with a modern approach to everyday dressing.

Joseph Cheaney established the company in 1886, and in 1896, along with his son Arthur, they moved to the site which the factory occupies today. During the first 80 years of business, the factory made shoes exclusively for some of the finest retailers around the world, branded to their individual company requirements. Joseph Humfrey Cheaney, the founder's grandson who worked for the company for 51 years, realised that the company's future lay in building up its own Cheaney brand for its home and export markets. In 1964, the decision was taken to sell the business to Church's English Shoes, after which the Cheaney brand became available to retailers all over the world, backed by a comprehensive stock service from the Desborough factory. In 1966 Cheaney won the Queen's Award for Industry and in 2016, the Queen's Award for Enterprise in International Trade. In 2009 Jonathan and William Church bought the company.
