HISTORY OF CRAWFORD'S BISCUITS: Crawford's Biscuit Company started as a Scottish baker of ship's biscuits in a public house on The Shore, Leith, in 1813. The bakery was acquired by Robert Mathie in 1817 and then William Crawford in 1856, when Mathie retired. William Crawford & Sons established large factories in Leith and Liverpool, and at its peak it was one of Britain's largest biscuit manufacturers and possibly the oldest.
