Biography/Administrative history:

Show detail Hide detail

Labatt Brewing Company : John Kinder Labatt, who arrived in London, Ontario in the mid 1830s, founded a small brewery in 1847. He purchased London's Simcoe Street brewery in partnership with Samuel Eccles and by 1853 had become the brewery's sole proprietor. Thereafter, he renamed the brewery John Labatt's Brewery. The railway opened new markets for Labatt, outside of London, in Toronto, Montreal and the Maritimes and formed the foundation for future aggressive marketing strategies. In 1945 the company, renamed John Labatt Limited, became a publicly traded company, and in 1964 Labatt Breweries of Canada, a subsidiary of John Labatt Limited, was established to handle brewing operations. Thereafter, its name was changed to the Labatt Brewing Company. In November 1986 the company was reincorporated as Labatt Breweries of Canada. The Canadian Encyclopedia, 2nd ed., Vol. 1, Pg. 268.
