This company was founded in Bridgetown in 1903 by Minard W. Graves, a farmer from Upper Granville who started with vinegar production but moved onto cider and other apple products. He acquired the the Annapolis Valley Cider company in 1922. The plant grew to be one of the largest and best equipped cider and vinegar plants in Canada and allowed Graves to move into new areas, including canned apples, concentrate, and juice, and carbonated beverages, establishing other plants such as the M. W. Graves plant in Berwick and the Canada Foods Plant in Kentville.[1]
