Crosse & Blackwell Tangy Mayonnaise

Crosse & Blackwell is a historic British brand established in 1706 and formally incorporated in 1830 by Edmund Crosse and Thomas Blackwell. Originally famous for its pickles, sauces, and preserves, the brand has become a staple in many households worldwide, particularly in the United Kingdom and South Africa.

The brand's ownership has evolved significantly over the centuries. Nestlé acquired the brand in 1960. While Nestlé continues to own the Crosse & Blackwell brand in many international markets, the South African division (which produces this specific 'Tangy Mayonnaise' variation) was acquired by Tiger Brands in 2011. Tiger Brands is a major South African fast-moving consumer goods company based in Bryanston, South Africa.

Today, the manufacturing of Crosse & Blackwell products is regional. High-volume products like this tangy mayonnaise are primarily manufactured in South African facilities to serve the African and export markets, ensuring local production standards and taste profiles are maintained.
