Ogden's Tobacco Company

Ogden's Tobacco Company was founded by Thomas Ogden in 1860 when he opened a small retail shop in Liverpool's Park Lane. Within a short time he had established several branches throughout the city and in six years his own factory in St James' Street. In 1870 additional premises were acquired in Cornwallis Street and by 1890 Ogden's had six factories in Liverpool. The present factory at Boundary Lane was built in 1899 and all operations were concentrated at this site when it opened in 1901.
