The Cow & Gate Company founded in 1771 by the Gates family as a small grocery shop in Guildford. Expansion into the dairy trade followed in 1887 with a new business called the West Surrey Central Dairy. During 1900 they began to sell milk powder to the bakery and catering trade and this was followed in 1904 with a link to the medical profession by supplying milk powder to be used as a baby food. By 1920 the Cow & Gate brand was so strongly associated with baby feeding that it was adopted as the company name.

Barton Centenary RTL Bartons were for many years of the 20th century Britains largest independent bus operators. The business pioneered both British and Continental Coach Holidays with its popular Road Cruises and the Company also ran an extensive Express Service network of coaches throughout Britain. The business was founded in 1908 near Nottingham by one of the great innovators and characters of the passenger transport industry, Thomas Henry Barton O.B.E., and his family. There were long associations with certain chassis manufacturers, most notably Daimler, followed by Lancia and then Leyland. But Bartons remain famous for their reputation for the superb re-engineering of a very wide range of vehicles (including re-bodying) to suit their own individual requirements. Shop here

Such is the success of the Ford Transit that its name has almost become the British word for light commercial vehicles. As a model name or even perhaps a sub brand within Ford it has outlived all its contemporaries such as the Escort Cortina or Granada. Often sold as `Transit the Backbone of Britain' (at one point Ford even produced T-shirts with that slogan written vertically down the wearer's spine) it shows no sign of dying yet. Bazooka Gum was launched just after the WWII and is best known for the character Bazooka Joe who appeared in comic strips enclosed in the packets. Shop here
