Fox's Burton's Companies (FBC UK) brings together two biscuit legends, Fox's and Burton's, with a combined heritage dating back as far as 1853. The company's own timeline records that in 1853 Michael Spedding baked his very first batch of brandy snaps, selling them to shows, shops and traders from his Batley bakery; in 1882 the first Burton's Biscuits were baked by George Burton; in 1895 Paterson's Brand was founded by J Paterson in the Royal Burgh of Rutherglen; in 1897 Fred Ellis Fox (Michael Spedding's son-in-law) took over the business, renaming it F E Fox & Co, which is where Fox's Biscuits gets its name; in 1916 the Thomas Fudge's brand was created; in 1922 Bee Bee Biscuits Ltd opened a biscuit bakery in Blackpool, the home of Maryland cookies; in 1927 Fox's current Batley bakery was created; and in 1935 Burton's Gold Medal Biscuits was founded by the grandson of George Burton. The merger of Fox's and Burton's created the second largest branded sweet biscuit baker in Britain, with several bakeries across England, Scotland and Wales. FBC UK states that it has been baking biscuit brilliance for 75 years, now teaming up with partners in over 50 countries and 6 continents, and describes itself as a Ferrero related company and part of the Ferrero Ecosystem.
