The company began in the early 1950’s as a small family business by the name of London Textiles.
Originally the company carried fabrics suitable for ladies and mens wear (when Crimplene and Terylene were in fashion), it later moved on to include sheer curtaining fabrics in the range. The company now primarily specializes in fabrics suitable for sportswear, corporate and protective clothing.
The name was changed to Broadway Textiles when the business relocated from the Sydney CBD to Ultimo (just off Broadway).
