When Toshio Okada, the founder of Clover Mfg. Co., Ltd., started to work for a needle wholesaler in Osaka at the age of 14, his mentor gave him a textbook on moral philosophy.
As a bookmark for this book, Toshio used a clover leaf grown in his hometown. In 1925, he opened his own shop, and soon after World War II, began manufacturing products on a full scale to provide consumers with needles and sewing tools.
That was when he decided to use the design of the clover leaf—sandwiched between the pages of a book he had when he left home—as a mark to assure product quality.
Although needles are small items, they are essential to people’s daily life, just like water and salt.
The Clover Mark continues to represent the founder’s philosophy of assuring quality and taking responsibility for even the smallest products the company offers.

Established in 1730, the name of Henry Milward and Sons became well known makers of good quality needles.
At one point it was the largest manufacturer of its type in the world, producing knitting needles, surgical needles and fishing tackle from a number of factories in the UK and globally.
In 1912, John James and Sons merged into Henry Milward and sons and a new board was announced.
Members of the board consisted of chairman C.B James, deputy chairman C.F Milward, H.T Milward, A.D Barfleet and C.E James.
Milward needles continued in Redditch until the 1950s – there were satellite factories set up during World War II in Evesham, Bewdley, Kidderminster and Moreton-in-Marsh. The basic needle plant was dispersed between Studley and Redditch during the war. In 1952 Arrow Works was officially opened and were still producing some brands of Milward’s needles as they were first made and marketed under the name of Henry Milward & Sons.
2016 Groves acquired Milward.
At the beginning of 2021, we pledged to work towards removing and reducing single-use plastic and plastic waste packaging from our ranges.
