Maynards

Charles Riley Maynard and his brother Tom started manufacturing sweets in 1880 in their kitchen in Stamford Hill in Hackney, London, England. Next door, Charles's wife, Sarah Ann, ran a sweet shop selling their products. In 1896 the brothers formed the Maynards sweet company. In 1990, Maynards merged with the Tottenham liquorice mill Bassett's, and Trebor.
