  Harris Tweed Hebrides (HTH) began in 2008, taking over the mill in Shawbost formerly run by Kenneth Macleod (Shawbost) Ltd.. The mill had been closed for two years, since being shut down by KM Group in 2006. The enterprise was instigated by Brian Wilson, former Labour MP (1987-2005), who now lives in Lewis and is still Chairman (2018). As well as operating the mill and selling Harris Tweed as a fabric, HTH have a retail outlet in Stornoway from which they sell clothing and accessories.
