Label TextThis match box promoted McCormick's salted crackers. A London-based business, McCormick's was one of the first Canadian manufacturers of food products to adopt unit packaging for retail sales when, in 1880, the company began distributing soda-biscuits in three-pound paperboard boxes. Prior to this time, biscuits were distributed to retail stores in bulk.
