Henry Isaac Rowntree : ウィキペディア英語版 | Henry Isaac Rowntree Henry Isaac Rowntree (1837 – 1883) was the founder of Rowntree's, one of the United Kingdom's largest confectionery businesses. ==Career== Having served his apprenticeship in his father's shop at The Pavement in York, and following his father's death in 1860, Henry Rowntree went to work for the Tuke family at their shop in Walmgate.〔(Fitzgerald, R. Page 47 )〕 In June 1862 Henry Isaac bought out the chocolate, cocoa-making and chicory departments and ran the business himself employing around a dozen people.〔Fitzgerald, R. Page 48〕 He followed Quaker principles and always insisted on the highest quality.〔 In August 1864 he bought a disused foundry at Tanners Moat and built a new factory there.〔Fizgerald, R, Page 48〕 However, he became distracted from his chocolate business by his mission to produce, edit and print the ''Yorkshire Weekly Press'': accordingly his chocolate business suffered and in June 1869 he took on his brother Joseph as a full partner in the business, now renamed H. I. Rowntree & Co.〔 The brothers continued in partnership and the business went from strength to strength until Henry Isaac's untimely death in 1883.〔(Larigan Genealogy )〕
