Spicers is one of the UK's major suppliers of tea and coffee, but the origins of the company, which bears the founder's name, were very different indeed. It was in 1934 that 24-year-old Keith Spicer founded the business, using the parlour of the family home in Bournemouth as the blending department and the distribution fleet consisting of a well used but serviceable butchers bicycle.
