We’re all delighted to eat United!

McVitie’s is a snack food brand owned by United Biscuits. The name derives from the original Scottish biscuit maker, McVitie & Price, Ltd., established in 1830 on Rose Street in Edinburgh, Scotland. The firm moved to various sites in the city before completing the St. Andrews Biscuit Works factory on Robertson Avenue in the Gorgie district in 1888.  The company also operates two large manufacturing plants south of the border in Levenshulme, Manchester and Harlesden, London.
