TOBACCO LIVERY COMPANY

Our Company was originally founded in 1619 as a trade association tasked with regulating the manufacture of clay pipes. Since that time, we were twice dissolved and re-established, and so - despite our 17th century origins - we are now listed as a Modern Livery Company having been re-formed in 1954... We are proud of our heritage and our 400-year history, and we enjoy many of the same traditions as our predecessors. However, we also see ourselves as a forward-looking Company which plays an active and relevant role in the daily life of the City of London... The Worshipful Company of Tobacco Pipe Makers and Tobacco Blenders, The Tobacco Livery Company, is a Livery Company in the City of London.
