About Us

Where it all began in 1973

Jack Harris, Colin Harris and Ron Woodhead opened a small shop in Enfield, North London buying and selling darts and accessories in-store and by mail order - with an old shed out back as their first manufacturing space.

Harrows' Timeline

Explore our journey from 1973 through to 2026.

Founded in Enfield

Harrows was officially founded in 1973 by Harris, his father Jack, and business partner Ron Woodhead. What started as a small retail venture soon grew into something much greater - production moved into a shed behind the shop, planting the seeds of what would go on to become one of the most iconic and influential names in the sport.

International Expansion Begins

A pioneer in every sense, Colin was behind the invention and development of countless products and features that are now standard across the sport. With an unwavering commitment to quality and performance, he played a pivotal role in transforming Harrows into a globally recognised brand - reaching players at every level and shipping British-made darts to over 100 countries worldwide.

Eric Bristow Joins Harrows

The timing could not have been better. As darts exploded in popularity through televised coverage in the 1970s and 80s, Colin made sure Harrows was perfectly positioned to ride that wave. By forging key partnerships with some of the sport's biggest names - including world champion Eric Bristow, Harrows built a formidable reputation and a truly global presence.

Soft tip darts manufacturing begins

Harrows grew in step with the sport itself. The business relocated to larger facilities in Hertfordshire and broadened its range into new categories, including soft-tip darts, embracing the game's increasingly global appeal. Through a relentless focus on innovation, craftsmanship and a deep understanding of what players needed, Colin didn't just build a successful company - he helped define the standards of an entire industry.

800 products, 100 countries

Today we manufacture in purpose built factories in Hoddesdon, England and our 800 products are distributed to over 100 countries globally.

Our Players

Harrows proudly sponsors four of the world's leading PDC professionals - Dave 'Chizzy' Chisnall, Damon 'The Heat' Heta, Ryan 'Heavy Metal' Searle and Luke 'Woody' Woodhouse - each competing at the very highest level of the sport. These partnerships are at the heart of everything Harrows does, with every signature dart engineered in collaboration with the players themselves to deliver the precision and performance that winning demands.
