John Tams then formed the company on his own, in 1903 became John Tams & Son and in 1912 John Tams Ltd.
Tams Group Limited was formed in April 2000. It was a management buy in of part of the former John Tams Group PLC, which went into receivership in February 2000.

Tams Group Limited bought the rights to Tams, Royal Grafton and Grafton Living. Marketing these brands and still manufacturing in Longton, Stoke on Trent - in 2002 was the biggest ceramic employer in Longton and one of the biggest mugs manufacturer in Europe.
The company operated from the Crown Works on The Strand in Longton and also had the Blythe, Sutherland and Atlas works in Longton - and a warehouse at the former Monarch flatware site in Fenton. In 2006 the group went into receivership and finally closed.

Another one I've driven past a few times and wondered about. Nice to see inside.

Its not a patch on what it used to be in there sadly, it used to be one of the best in Stoke but that was before the fires and the stripping and the partial demolition.
