About Gawith Hoggarth Tobacco

Gawith Hoggarth & Co Ltd was set up back in 1887 as a rival company to the already existing Samuel Gawith company.

The Gawith family connection to the tobacco trade goes back to 1792, with the first company under the Gawith name being established in around 1841 but in 1878 the two Gawith brothers decided to terminate their partnership and run separate tobacco businesses, both in Kendal. The two companies briefly merged again in 1885, only for family members to part ways and set up a separate business 2 years later.

From 1962 Samuel Gawith’s no longer had any member of the Gawith family involved in the ownership or running of the company.

But in 2015 Gawith Hoggarth & Co bought back Samuel Gawith’s and both brands are now back under one roof and ownership with the Gawith family privately owning the company.
