Who we are

This website is operated by itLuggage limited trading as itLuggage. itLuggage limited was established in London in 1985 as Landor Ltd, designing quality luggage suitable for business and leisure needs.

Today, itLuggage supplies more than 46 countries across the globe and produces over 7 million products a year, taking overall production to over 60 million, making us one of the most successful luggage producers in the world. itLuggage has international locations in Hertford, UK.
