Interesting facts about Smiths
‘Smith’s Crisps‘ were first manufactured in Australia in 1931 by Mr. Smith and an associate, George Ensor in leased premises in Sydney’s Surry Hills. They were originally made in a 20 gas fired cooking pots, packed by hand and distributed by Nestle confectionery vans.
‘Smith’s Potato Crisps‘ sold its early crisps in three penny packets, 24 to a tin. “Twist of salt” sachets were included before pre-salting had been introduced.
The Smiths Snackfood company in 1998 was Australia’s largest producer of salty snack foods and was acquired in August 1998, by Frito-Lay the second largest producer of salt snack foods in Australia, which is owned by PepsiCo.
Smiths Jackets Manufactured during the 1970s, these were crisps where the potatoes had not been peeled, leaving potato skin around the edges. There was an advert which featured dancing potatoes singing “We want to be jackets” in falsetto voices, and the slogan “So good, every potato wants to be one”.
