Fisherman's Friend Lemon Pastilles

Fisherman's Friend is a legendary brand of strong menthol lozenges founded in 1865 in Fleetwood, Lancashire, England. Originally developed by pharmacist James Lofthouse to aid deep-sea fishermen suffering from respiratory problems in the freezing North Atlantic, the brand has grown into a global confectionery staple.

Today, the brand remains a family-owned legacy, managed by the Lofthouse family company, Lofthouse of Fleetwood Ltd. Unlike many global snack brands that have been acquired by large conglomerates, Fisherman's Friend maintains its independent production. Every single lozenge sold worldwide is still manufactured at the original site in Fleetwood, ensuring consistency and quality controlled by the founding family's descendants.
