In the Queen's Birthday Honours of 21 April 2010, the company was awarded two Queen's Awards for Enterprise - in the Innovation and International Trade categories. [1]Brompton has now produced well over 100,000 bicycles and in 2008 achieved 25,000 units for export to markets such as the Netherlands, America, Germany, Japan and Scandinavia. A Cambridge engineering graduate, Ritchie was working as a landscape gardener in London when, in 1976, he conceived the idea for a folding bike, which he subsequently named after the 'Church of the Immaculate Heart of Mary', otherwise known as the Brompton Oratory. His design won the 'Best Product' award against an international field at the Cyclex exhibition in April 1987. After devoting his life to the development and manufacture of the bike, he began to step back from the day to day running of the company in 2005, reduced his shareholding, and now acts as Technical Director.".
