OriginUnited Kingdom
Manufactured:Multiple countries

Princes is a heritage food and beverage brand with deep roots in the United Kingdom. Originally established in Liverpool, the company has evolved from a small trading business into one of the largest food importers and manufacturers in Europe. The brand is well-known for its wide range of shelf-stable products, including canned fish, meats, fruits, and vegetables, as well as oils and soft drinks.

While the brand originated in the UK, its manufacturing footprint is expansive, drawing products from various global locations to ensure year-round supply and cost-efficiency. In recent years, ownership of the brand has transitioned; following decades under the Japanese conglomerate Mitsubishi Corporation, the Princes Group was acquired in late 2024 by Newlat Food S.p.A., a major Italian food producer. This acquisition makes Newlat the ultimate parent company, aiming to integrate Princes into a broader European food portfolio while maintaining its established British identity.
