yeah right, Walkers has been around since the 1800's.


Walkers is now owned by Frito-Lay, which in turn is a subsidiary of Pepsico.

My point is proven, old chap.


That was Walkers logo before PepsiCo bought them over.


Actually it's the logo from 2006 onwards.

The logo before 2006 was very similar, just changed the font and added some kind of flares on the edges. The essence of it is the same.

an even earlier packet of walkers


also a little piece of history too


Yes, there was a Mr Walker!

He was called Henry Walker and he was a very successful pork butcher who moved from Mansfield to Leicester in the 1880's to take over an established business in the high street. Mr Walker and his son offered quality meat and the business prospered, eventually moving to Cheapside in 1912.

But when the Second World War came meat was severely rationed and even in 1948 Walker's shops were sold out by 10am every day. The factory was working at half-capacity. Mr Walker pondered over how he could make better use of his premises and his eager work force.

The company's managing director, R.E Gerrard, considered moving into ice-cream but there could be hygiene problems from manufacturing meat and dairy products so close together. Then he hit on potato crisps, enormously popular with the public, subject to rationing.

I'm pretty sure there's a lot more to life than being really, really, ridiculously good looking. And I plan on finding out what that is.
