Halls is a British brand of a mentholated cough drop[a] owned by Mondelēz International since 2015. In 2016, it was one of the biggest selling brands of over-the-counter medications sold in Great Britain, with sales of £32.5 million.[1]
The Hall Brothers company was founded in 1893 by Thomas Harold Hall and Norman Smith Hall. The cough drops were first made in the 1930s on Stanley Road, Whitefield, Lancashire.[2] The company was acquired by Warner-Lambert in 1964 with production moved to Dumers Lane, Radcliffe in 1970. Pfizer acquired Warner-Lambert in June 2000. Two years later the brand was bought by Cadbury Schweppes, which was purchased by Kraft foods and later restructured.
