Title: Oxford biscuit retailer's advert, 1930s [Go to resource]
Description: Respected local retailers formed the core of Huntley & Palmers customers until the 1930s. The growth of large chains such as J.Sainsbury changed the biscuit and cake market. The larger chains or big local retailers tended to only stock a small number of Huntley & Palmers standard varieties. The company gradually began to stop production of the less popular or labour intensive brands. This Oxford retailer probably only stocked the varieties shown in this advert, mostly Assorted, Chocolate and Ginger Nuts biscuits.
