        History

        John Locke Lovibond founded his brewery in 1834, but did not move to London until 1847, purchasing a brewey in Greenwich. In 1872 Lovibond's four sons set up a partnership, trading as "John Lovibond and Sons, Greenwich", later forming a limited company in 1896 as "John Lovibond and Sons Ltd". In 1959 the company stopped production of beer and became wine merchants. The company was purchased by Wine Ways Supermarkets Ltd in 1968, and a year later the Greenwich premises were sold.
