Title: Army No9, First World War [Go to resource]
Description: Shortly after war broke out in 1914 Huntley & Palmers began making army biscuits for the forces. Despite starting the war with low stock levels, Huntley & Palmers managed to honour its commitments to the government until 1917 when it halted its supply of army biscuits in an attempt to rescue its export business. These army biscuits 'no. 9' were made by Huntley & Palmers during World War I.
