About this deal

Pop the chocolate, butter and Lyle's Golden Syrup in a heatproof bowl and set it over a pan of simmering water for about 5 minutes – stirring from time to time until it's melted and smooth (don't let the bowl base touch the water). Children at Santa Clara R.C. School, Belize, are safer from the risk of lung diseases due to nesting bats, thanks to a new roof on their classroom. >> Read More... Even though their respective factories were almost next door to each other, Henry Tate and Abram Lyle actually despised each other and never met in person throughout their lifetimes.

Through Fairtrade, we've been making a positive contribution to thousands of small scale cane sugar farmers in developing countries, since 2008. Fairtrade truly makes a difference to the lives of farmers, workers and their families by enabling them to them to maintain their livelihoods and reach their potential. The ‘Fox@Connaught’ has obviously been designed to cater for the airport ‘traffic’ of travellers, passengers & staff alike. Henry Tate bequeathed a large portion of his wealth to many good causes in the East London area – and he left his large and valuable collection of fine art and paintings, to the nation – and this became the ‘Tate Gallery’ down in Pimlico, which is now known as ‘Tate Britain’.In the early 1970’s the future of Tate & Lyle was very much put in doubt, and there was a threat of closure as a result of ‘quota-restrictions’ imposed by the EU (eg the Common Market as it was then). Meanwhile in 1883, Abram Lyle started a sugar smelting process at a new refinery he had opened down at Plaistow Wharfon the River Thames – just 1.5miles away from Tate’s factory. children of Class 5 in San Estevan R.C. School, Belize, now have a new and spacious classroom. >> Read More... FAIRTRADE SUGAR HELPS DISABLED CHILDREN PLAY IN SAN ANDRES The Henley Arms was built in the early 1960’s and is a typical post-war council estate pub. It was shut when I located it, so I didn’t have the chance to have a ‘cheeky’ one in there. The businesses of both Henry Tate and Abram Lyle were extremely successful bringing both owners great wealth and more importantly providing much wanted employment to the Silvertown area of east London and beyond.

The factories in Silvertown became one of London’s biggest employers who, at its peak, employed over 5,000 people.Under the Fairtrade system, farmers must decide together, democratically, how to spend the Fairtrade Premium and they must demonstrate good financial processes. This sounds a bit dry but in reality it is an incredibly exciting process as farmers vote on how they will improve their livelihoods. See below for some examples of how the Fairtrade Premium paid by Tate & Lyle Sugars has funded some really life changing projects. In 1949 ‘Tate & Lyle’ launched its iconic ‘Mr. Cube’ brand – that introduced boxes of sugar cubes into everyday life. In 2018 ‘Tate & Lyle’ celebrated 140 years of refining sugar at Silvertown – and hopefully, long may it continue. So – that’s all about the history of ‘Tate & Lyle’ in Silvertown for you– hope you found it interesting – and I guess all that’s left to say is ‘one lump or two-madam’? These EU restrictions have continued to have an impact of Tate & Lyle’s production output and workforce numbers, and the business has had to diversify its range of products to be able to compete profitably – a challenge that it has successfully managed so far – and with UK now leaving the EU, and restrictions lifted, it could herald a really positive new phase for the future of Tate & Lyle.

It makes common sense, and indeed good sustainable business sense, for Tate & Lyle Sugars to support the people who farm sugar cane, the raw material on which we depend. Fairtrade is a system that encourages small scale farmers to become an organised social group, improve their environmental and ethical practices and in return they receive financial support (Fairtrade Premium) for their produce.From what I could see whilst ambling through its streets, there appear to be only 2 pubs in the actual Silvertown area – the ‘Henley Arms’ and the strangely named ‘Fox@Connaught’.

In 1878 Henry Tate expanded his sugar business by opening up a new refinery in East London-down by the River Thames in ‘Silvertown’-E16. New fencing, road signs, and a playground were installed to keep children safe in San Victor R.C. School in Belize. >> Read More... FAIRTRADE SUGAR HELPS BUILD CLASSROOMS IN SAN ESTEVAN Fast forward 20 years to the early 1920’s – the 2 rival sugar refineries eventually merged, and ‘Henry Tate & Sons’ and ‘Abram Lyle & Sons’ became the now globally recognised “Tate & Lyle”brand.
