Butter Factories and Wholesale Dealers in Margarine.
The custom of some retail shops selling Margarine to other
traders and constituting themselves wholesale dealers appears to have
fallen into disuse in Hampstead, probably due to increased facilities
being given by the wholesale Margarine Merchants, with the result
that at the end of the year only two traders were so registered :—
304, High Road, Kilburn—Messrs. Maypole Dairy Co., Ltd.
233, Finchley Road—Messrs. Upton, Ltd.
There is now no butter factory in the Borough.
