Barkers Marquees started life in 1884 as a small catering company, early records show us erecting tents at Epsom Races and Hampton Court.

​

Charles Fredrick Barker erected beer and tea tents to house the catering company’s beer and light refreshments at Epsom Races, under the ‘three brooms’ marker. Soon the Marquees Hire business took over from catering. 

 

  In 1921 we started manufacturing marquees for ourselves and other companies, in 2002 we decided to split the Hire and Manufacturing businesses. Paul Barker (Grandson of Charles) ran Barkers Marquees manufacturing company until 2022 when he sold it to Tectonics UK.

 

The sale of Barkers Marquees to Tectonics UK in 2022, brought together Tectonics UK’s experience in manufacturing frame marquees with Barkers Marquees’ designs and experience in Pole Marquees.
