Worshipful Company of Grocers

The Worshipful Company of Grocers is one of the 110 Livery Companies of the City of London and ranks second in order of precedence.
Established in 1345, the Grocers comprise one of London's Great Twelve City Livery Companies.
==History==
The company was founded in the fourteenth century as the ''Guild of Pepperers'', which dates from 1180.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= The Worshipful Company of Grocers )〕 The Company was responsible for maintaining standards for the purity of spices and for the setting of certain weights and measures. Its members included London's pharmacists, who separated forming the Worshipful Society of Apothecaries in 1617.
The guild was known as the ''Company of Grossers'' from 1373 until 1376 when it was renamed the ''Company of Grocers of London''. In 1428, two years after building its first hall in Old Jewry, the Company was granted a Royal Charter by King Henry VI of England.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= The Worshipful Company of Grocers: Arms & History )〕 One of the Great Twelve City Livery Companies, it ranks second in the Companies order of precedence after the Mercers' Company. It is said that the Grocers' Company used to be first in the order, until Queen Elizabeth I, as Honorary Master of the Mercers' Company, found herself in procession, after her coronation behind the Grocers' camel which was emitting unfortunate smells; as a result, the Mercers were promoted.
Today, the Grocers' Company exists as a charitable, constitutional and ceremonial institution which plays a significant role in the election of and supporting the Lord Mayor and the Sheriffs of the City of London. The Company's motto is ''"God Grant Grace"''.〔 The Company also provides banqueting and conference facilities at Grocers' Hall situated in Prince's Street, next to the Bank of England.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= A Modern Interpretation of Classic Cuisine: A Culinary Experience at the Grocers’ Hall )
