This firm appears to have had its origins in the shop of John Crook, tea merchant and grocer, established at 17 Friargate by 1889. The business expanded into wholesale grocers, tea and coffee merchants with a move to Colonial Buildings, Corporation Street, before 1892. Their last appearance in Preston street and trade directories appears to be 1963. |
