Stockwell & Co Baked Beans

Stockwell & Co. is a prominent budget-friendly brand exclusively sold by Tesco, a leading British multinational retailer. The brand name pays homage to Thomas Edward Stockwell, a tea merchant from whom Tesco's founder, Jack Cohen, purchased his first shipment of tea in 1924. By combining the first three letters of 'Stockwell' with the first two letters of 'Cohen', the iconic 'Tesco' name was born.

Originally introduced to replace the 'Tesco Value' range, Stockwell & Co. provides everyday essentials at competitive price points. While the beans are typically manufactured in the United Kingdom to meet the high demand of the British market, they are produced under contract by major food processing partners rather than in Tesco-owned factories. Today, the brand remains a key part of Tesco's strategy to compete with discount retailers by offering trusted heritage branding with modern value.
