The name of one Liverpool dairy business was once a familiar sight on our streets.
Generations ago, the area now known as Merseyside was home to both the historic Liverpool cowkeepers and hundreds of dairy owners, who sold milk to a rapidly expanding city population. As time went on, the modern milkman, as many came to know them, became a familiar sight on our Liverpool streets, with most families having fresh milk delivered daily.
Refrigeration and pasteurization soon became common place, and other factors such as the rise of supermarkets and the Milk Marketing Board coming into existence changed the way dairies and milkmen operate. But many of us will remember family members working in for one local business decades ago and the brand name being part of our every day lives.
