Schwartz Ground Coriander

Schwartz is a leading brand in the herbs and spices sector, with a history dating back to 1841. It was founded by William Henry Schwartz in Halifax, Canada, originally as a coffee business before expanding into pure spices in the late 19th century. The brand gained significant popularity for its commitment to purity and quality, eventually becoming a household name in the United Kingdom after entering the market in 1959.

Today, the brand is owned by McCormick & Company, an American global leader in flavor. While the brand has Canadian roots and a strong British identity, its products for the European and UK markets are primarily manufactured at McCormick's facilities in France (specifically Avignon) and the United Kingdom. Ownership shifted to McCormick in 1984, which has since maintained Schwartz as the premier spice brand in the UK through various design refreshes and product innovations.
