As with today, there were many purveyors of fine food in early 20th century Preston. Preston also had a manufacturing base, in food production, with a large biscuit factory in Moor Lane. A range of cafes and catering services supplied the local area. It was also a time when the commercialisation of pet food manufacture was taking place.The Health Food Stores in Cannon Street sold Artox flour. Artox was a manufacturer of flour from Cheshire.
One of the larger food manufactures was Thomas Powell and Son. They had a large building in Moor Lane that manufactured biscuits. Adverts for Powell’s biscuits were a common site on Ribble buses in the early 20th century. The building survived until 2020 when it was demolished to make room for student flats. The company was established in 1837 and was still advertising in the 1950s. Many Preston locals remember working there.
