A bit about us

Our Story

Since the very beginning, our story has been about baking really great biscuits that people love. Everyday classics you can enjoy over a natter, posh ones when guests are over and lunch box favourites that make you smile.

Our passion is part of our DNA and runs through everything we do – from the great British brands we lovingly bake today and throughout our history, which can be traced all the way back to 1829 when Mr George Burton was born…

Burton's Biscuits

Our History

It all started in 1829 with George Burton, the boy who grew up to bake biscuits. Roll on to the 1900s and the Burton’s family bakery was thriving, with many of our biscuits and snack foods already household favourites. Pioneering new technologies and manufacturing processes made sure we always stayed one step ahead, even winning accolades in international taste tests. In 1935 George’s grandson Joseph founded Burton’s Biscuits.

Today we have a team of over 2000 biscuit experts. You’ll find us all up and down the country in our bakeries, or coming up with new product ideas at our head office in St. Albans.
