The family firm of Diaper Poultry Ltd is situated near Stowmarket in Suffolk. The firm dates back to 1911 when James Henry Diaper moved into Haughley New Street and began trading as an Egg and Poultry Merchant. James Henry Diaper, better known as Jimmy Diaper, had three daughters and two sons. Jack, the youngest son, left school at the tender age of 14 when to quote "they couldn't teach him any more" to join his father buying eggs and poultry from local farmers using a horse and cart. Following the death of his father in 1952 Jack took control of the business, married Mary and they started a family. By the mid 1950's Jack had built a new factory and was handling 5,000 chickens per week. It was during this period of development in the late 50s that Jack and Mary's two eldest sons, John and Arthur, were immersed into the business way of life. The two boys spent many hours during school holidays working in the chicken factory, something which would be frowned upon by Health and Safety..
