Arthur Price is a Sheffield-based manufacturer of cutlery and silverware, originally established in Birmingham, England in 1902, and later moving to Sheffield.

The local Community Development Project expressed itself unsure as to the impact the company would make in the area, as it was employing "less than 200 workers, and its position seems very insecure".

[6] At the same time, John Price launched what David Hey has described as "a vigorous marketing campaign" which emphasised the exclusivity of the company's designs to British department stores.

[3][note 2] Arthur Price survived as a family firm, but now production has been outsourced and offshored as the copay's focus has shifted from manufacturing to designing, sourcing and marketing cutlery.

[1] By this time, one commentator has observed, the company was in effect "not a production facility so much as a service",[8] as it manufactured to order, on behalf of hotel chains and kitchen designers.
