Growing up in a tenement building in Glasgow, there was nothing to suggest that Sir Thomas Lipton would go on to revolutionize the future of tea. Yet before long, his publicity stunts and wacky marketing campaigns cemented his place in the history of tea.

1929
1982
In 1871 Thomas Lipton of Glasgow, Scotland used his small savings to open his own shop, and by the 1880s the business had grown to more than 200 shops.
In 1929 the Lipton grocery retail business was one of the companies that merged with Home and Colonial Stores, Maypole Dairy Company, Vyes & Boroughs, Templetons, Galbraiths & Pearks to form a food group with more than 3,000 stores.
Lipton’s became a supermarket chain focused on small towns, before Allied’s acquisition by Argyll Foods in 1982. The supermarket business was rebranded as Presto during the 1980s.

This was followed in 2003 by a second joint venture, Pepsi-Lipton International (PLI), covering many non-United States markets.
In May 2007, Unilever became the first company to commit to sourcing all its tea in a sustainable manner.
