− | The Thames Refinery was opened by [[Henry Tate & Sons]] in 1878. The factory's biggest product was sugar cubes. The factory was seven and a half acres but was doubled in size in 1908. The refinery still operates today.

| |
− | In the 17th and 18th century, sugar was imported from sugar cane plantations in sub-tropic locations like the [[West Indies]]. By the 18th century, sugar beet was being grown locally in Europe, so Henry Tate & Sons imported large amounts of [[sugar]] from [[Germany]], [[Holland]], [[Belgium]] and [[France]].
