The same is true over in England, where Whitworths is the surname of the brand’s three founding brothers: John, Herbert and Newton. Together, at the end of the 19th century, they created Whitworths Bros., now known as\u00a0 Whitworths Sugar. They initially traded sugar, as well as dried fruit and flour. It was not until a century later, during the 1980s, that the first packet of sugar bearing the Whitworths name was released. Yet, a few years prior to that the Whitworths Bros were awarded the Royal Warrant by Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother for supplying goods to the Households of HM The Queen.<\/p>\n
