Country of Origin

Perhaps it would be appropriate to add a column to the tables to indicate the country of origin of each warrant holder. There are several foreign royal warrant holders. Illinois347 (talk) 04:07, 4 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Note

Hoover supposedly lost the Royal Warrant in 2004, and yet it is still mentioned as holding one. [1] Not mentioned in the list of holders, so I have placed it in the table of past holders.--Auric talk 22:46, 29 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Business arrangements?

What are the business arrangements of a Royal Warrant holder and the appointee? Are British Royal Warrants free to the holder? --DThomsen8 (talk) 15:51, 15 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Date?

How do we find the two dates for the columns in the table? I'm adding Gilbert Gilkes & Gordon to the list as they are listed on the website, the same ref used for most of the other entries, but the record there has no date. PamD 23:20, 19 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Right, I guess that "Date of validity" means "I checked it in the RWA list this year", so have input that one. Still to see how to identify date of first warrant (not listed in company history on its website). PamD 23:31, 19 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
