Fulham boasts a rich legacy of commerce and innovation that spans several centuries. Beginning in the 15th century, the area was home to numerous industries, including pottery, tapestry-weaving, paper-making, and brewing, which flourished in the 17th and 18th centuries along Fulham High Street. In later years, Fulham became involved in various sectors such as the automotive industry, early aviation, food production, and laundry. During the 19th century, glass-blowing was also prevalent, and this tradition experienced a resurgence in the 21st century with the establishment of the Aronson-Noon studio and the former Zest gallery, located on Rickett Street.
