Rowntree Mackintosh

Rowntree Mackintosh Confectionery was a confectionery company formed by the merger of Rowntree's and John Mackintosh Co.. The company was famous for making well-known brands of chocolate, including Kit Kat, Aero, and Quality Street. The company was purchased by Nestlé in 1988, which rebranded many products under its own brand.

Rowntree Mackintosh Confectionery also owned John Mackintosh Co.'s former headquarters and factory. The Halifax-based factory is still used today, located next to Halifax railway station for the production of Quality Street and more. Rowntree's former factory and headquarters were in York. Nestle has invested more than £200 million in the Rowntree's business since 1988, making the York site one of the world's largest confectionery factories. Nestle's global research centre for confectionery is also based here, and recently doubled in size following a £7 million investment.
