Schweppes Holdings Limited | Royal Warrant Holders Association (original) (raw)

Schweppes was founded in 1783 by Jacob Schweppe, a German-born Swiss jeweller and amateur scientist who invented the first ever process of capturing and bottling bubbles. From this carbonation system the world’s first ever soft drink, Schweppes soda water, was born.

Jacob Schweppe’s effervescent character still lives in our products today. Now sold to 811,000 people each week and 6.5 million households per year; the Schweppes brand continues to go from strength to strength. Having held the Royal Warrant since 1836 and been the official sponsor of Prince Albert’s Great Exhibition in 1851, Schweppes has been proudly served at Britain's most prestigious households and events for over 234 years, it’s why we’re the nation’s favourite.
