We’re Moving
For those who don’t know, Bright Tangerine has been based in the heart of the UK since its founding. Like most companies, we started around a kitchen table rather than a conference table – but have steadily grown into a global business. Now in 2025, we’re moving to new offices to better accommodate our customers – but we’ll be going through some downtime in the meantime.
From the end of March 2025, we’ll be moving our current office locations to a new base in Hampshire. As such, we’re going to be unable to fulfil orders between the 24th March and 7th April as we move our factory facilities. If you are looking to pick up some of our gear, we recommend that you do so sooner rather than later to ensure on-time delivery.
You can still place your order, of course, but we won’t be able to guarantee our usual shipping window.
If you are planning a return during this period, we’ll get in contact to ensure that your package is correctly routed. If you don’t hear from us, you have nothing to worry about.
Where We’ve Been
Bright Tangerine started small, with our first products being handmade tape measures, gloves and bags – designed by camera technicians, for camera technicians. In this time, all products were manufactured and packaged from home. Stock was stored in the hallway before shipping and the living room became an improvised studio. But as both the demand for our products and our business requirements grew, more space was needed.
In 2014 the first official Bright Tangerine office opened in Aldershot, Surrey. With more space and more staff, we were able to better meet customer needs and set our sights on the global market. We released the original Misfit matte box, the grandfather of our modern range, and partnered with B&H Photo Video to help distribute our products on a larger scale in the US.
Things were going well for us, until we were once again challenged by a lack of space. In 2018, we shifted our manufacturing model and invested in cutting-edge CMM and CNC machines. They aren’t the smallest of machines, so we opted to expand to a new facility in the town of Church Crookham outside of Fleet, Hampshire.
All the while, Bright Tangerine was growing. New staff, new challenges – and with the Fleet office serving more as a factory, studio and storeroom; the rest of the team needed somewhere to work. In 2022, we expanded into additional office space in Farnham, Surrey alongside the Fleet space.
Where We’re Going
Now, in 2025, we’re looking to consolidate into a single facility in Alton, Hampshire. Having all of our business under the same roof means we can better communicate, and keep operations running smoothly.
We are asking that you are patient with us as we go through this transition. We have been planning this move to ensure our logistics are back up and running as soon as possible, but there is a lot to do in that time.
We’ll be back as soon as we can, delivering the top-quality camera accessories that you love.
