Benson & Hedges was founded on Old Bond Street, London, in 1873 by partners Richard Benson and William Hedges. The new company had the patronage of the Prince of Wales (who would ascend the throne as King Edward VII in 1901), who gave them a Royal Warrant in 1878, an honour which they kept until it was withdrawn (due to lack of demand in the royal households) in 1999. As well, the company was among the first not to sell tobacco loosely by weight, but rather to sell it in sealed tins to ensure freshness. Hedges' son, Alfred Paget, stepped into the company when partner Richard Benson departed in 1885.
The company expanded overseas during the turn of the last century; however, the subsidiaries drifted apart from the mother company over time, and would end up being sold off to differing owners. The United Kingdom branch of Benson and Hedges was sold to Gallaher in 1955.
Benson & Hedges was founded in 1873 by Richard Benson and William Hedges as Benson and Hedges Ltd. The company was formed to make cigarettes for the then Prince of Wales, Albert Edward.
