Title: Peek Frean catalogue, 1908 [Go to resource]
Description: Peek Frean was established in 1857 and had its first factory in St Saviour's Dock, London. After a spectacular fire in 1872, which the Prince of Wales, later Edward VII, came to see, a new factory was built nearby in Bermondsey. Peek Frean was famous for its 'Pearl' and 'Pat-A-Cake' biscuits. In 1921 Peek Frean and Huntley & Palmers formed Associated Biscuits Manufacturers Ltd. From that point on the two companies negotiated together on issues like retailers percentages and shared some financial information.
