The group
Noma Industries is an owner-led industrial group combining manufacturing, supply, brand ownership, wholesale distribution and retail. Its purpose is to develop the conditions through which original works and distinct businesses can continue.
Our interests
The group brings together three areas of interest.
Production and Atelier Assets encompass productive enterprises, facilities, rights and capabilities. They provide the means to develop and produce work with a particular character.
Brand Holdings give distinct offerings an identity and a relationship with their audiences. Each brand needs its own point of view, supported rather than replaced by the group.
Commercial Networks connect offerings with their markets through wholesale, distribution and retail. Ownership, representation and supply are different relationships; we describe each according to its actual scope.
Nonlinear Manufacturing
NOMA denotes Nonlinear Manufacturing. It describes how creation, production and commercial experience inform one another. A production finding can refine a design; a customer question can improve how a product is explained. Evidence can change a decision without making responsibility less clear.
Governing principles
Three principles guide this approach.
Integrity means truthful descriptions, legitimate rights and responsibility for what is released.
Originality means giving each work and business a reason to exist beyond imitation.
Continuity means preserving the knowledge, identity and viable economics needed to carry worthwhile work forward.
Our name, over time, connects these principles. It asks us to consider what follows a decision as carefully as what begins it.
