Saltrock Surfwear is a British surfwear company, originating in Penzance, Cornwall. Created by brothers Angus and Ross Thompson, the idea was to generate money to fund their passion of surfing. The brothers moved the company to Devon in 1992 when surfer Carl Priscott joined the board.
They recently constructed a new headquarters building across the road from the old building. This serves as a factory shop as well as a distribution depot for merchandise being sent out across the country.
Saltrock products can be found in over 300 stores around the United Kingdom, Ireland and Europe. It also has four shops of its own. These are located in:
- Croyde, Devon, United Kingdom
- Braunton, Devon, United Kingdom
- Atlantic Village, Devon, United Kingdom
- Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, United Kingdom
- Drake Circus, Plymouth, Devon, United Kingdom
