At some point, the hosiery factory became part of the Coats
Viyella company. Coats Viyella was once one of the UK's leading textile businesses with retail (Jaeger), thread (Coats) and manufacturing (CV Clothing) businesses. Quantum Clothing Group was created as a management buy-out from Coats Viyella

Hucknall Colliery was opened which employed 500 people. By 1881 the population of the village had grown to over 2000. By 1912 the workforce had increased to over 1,300 but the main industry in the village had become the manufacture of hosiery products.
