This was GV Crump's provisions merchants in 1958, which traded at 41 High Street Ashford Kent, from the 1940's to the early 1960's. The business produced its own pies, pates, cooked meats and ran a van delivery round all over the town and surrounding country areas. (Well ahead of Tescos!). It was sold to International Stores but now forms the right hand half of HSBC Bank.
