History
Sun-Pat opened a factory in Peckham, South London which was bombed on October 15, 1940 during the blitz. Several women were killed and many injured.Script error: No such module "Unsubst".
In 1958, H S Whiteside acquired Maconochie Brothers, and production was moved up to their factory in Hadfield, near Manchester.[1][2][3] In 1965, Whitesides overstretched themselves financially, and the company was bought by Rowntrees in 1967. Rowntrees, in turn, was taken over by Nestlé in June 1988.[4]Script error: No such module "Unsubst".
In the beginning of the 1990s, a range of cheese spreads were also produced under the Sun-Pat brand, but were later discontinued.
In May 2002, after its acquisition of Nestlé's ambient food business, Premier Foods acquired Sun-Pat.[5] The factory in Hadfield was closed down in 2004, and production then moved to Histon, Cambridgeshire.[6] In October 2012, after its acquisition of Premier Foods' spreads and jellies business, Sun-Pat is currently owned by Hain Celestial Group.[7]
