About us

The Great British Teddy Bear Company is an internationally respected toy character brand founded by the Jessup family in 2002. GBTB has evolved from being the manufacturer of Britain’s finest Teddy Bears, endorsed by the Prime Minister and collected by the Royal family to an intellectual property steeped in history, protected by both copyright and trademark in China.

Individually each GB Teddy Bear is iconically famous, and they add value to the products and partnerships that they endorse. Together the GB Teddy Bear family represents the very best of British quality, culture, history, and tradition.
