In the 1940s Sydney Schreiber had a small metalworking business which was helping the war effort by manufacturing boxes for radar equipment. After the war he needed to find a different use for his machinery. He changed the company name to Kaymet in 1947 and began making trolleys and trays for the catering business and he exhibited these at the Festival of Britain in 1951. One of their premium products was the Kaymet Roast Beef trolley which was purchased by the leading hotels at that time. In the 1950s the company went from strength to strength, moved to a larger factory and started supplying the Royal Household. The company still exists today and their merchandise is sold by Harrods, they exhibited at this years London Design Festival. Our reference: A3467
