Hartley's Jam

Hartley's is one of Britain's most iconic jam and jelly brands, with a history dating back to 1871 when Sir William Pickles Hartley founded the company in Lancashire. The brand quickly became a household name in the United Kingdom, known for its wide variety of fruit preserves and jellies. For over a century, the brand has maintained its reputation for traditional British jam-making techniques.

Manufacturing primarily takes place in the United Kingdom, specifically at facilities in Histon, Cambridgeshire. This site has long been the heart of the brand's production, ensuring that the heritage of the product remains tied to its British roots while serving a large international market.

Ownership of Hartley's has changed hands through several corporate acquisitions. After being part of Premier Foods, the brand was acquired by the American food conglomerate Hain Celestial Group in 2012. Today, Hartley's sits within the Hain Celestial portfolio, benefiting from a global distribution network while continuing to operate as a cornerstone of the British breakfast table.
