Yeah there will be lots of companies that do them. KSport, Targox, AP etc... Not many people use them though as you need a mechanical handbrake to pass MOT.

Pretty much most of those companies can supply calipers with a cable attachment too apparently. Or just add a secondary cable only caliper.

You can get an integral handbrake drum for rears, but I'm yet to see a picture of one. I think it's supposed to be like 170mm in diameter an literally to be within the bell.
