EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the bustling activity at Moir, Wilson & Co Ltd's Deeside Preserved Provision Works in Aberdeen, Scotland, circa 1905. The image showcases the company's Herrings in Tomato Sauce production line, a staple of Scottish cuisine during the Edwardian era. The chimney of the factory belches out smoke, symbolizing the industrial might and energy that powered the city's thriving trade and industry. Moir, Wilson & Co Ltd was a prominent name in Aberdeen's food industry, renowned for its high-quality preserved provisions. The company's herrings in tomato sauce were a favorite among locals and beyond, reflecting the rich culinary heritage of Scotland. The workers, dressed in protective clothing and hats, are seen busily packing the herrings into cans, ensuring each one is perfectly coated with the tangy tomato sauce. The photograph transports us back to an era of innovation and progress, where traditional methods met modern industrialization. The workers' dedication and the company's commitment to quality are palpable, making this an intriguing snapshot of Scotland's food industry history. This souvenir image is a testament to Moir, Wilson & Co Ltd's enduring legacy and the proud Scottish tradition of preserving and enjoying the bounty of the North Sea.
