• Pick and Supers Fully Firm
• Halfbreds Fully Firm
• Crosses 1 - 2.5% dearer
• Cheviots Firm

A farmer run organisation, the British Wool Marketing Board (BWMB) was established in 1950 to operate a central marketing system for UK fleece wool, with the aim of achieving the best possible net return for producers.
