ISTORY OF GEORGE BORMAN CO.
The history of the factory began in 1862, when George (Georges) Nikolayevich Borman founded the company "in a very modest size". A small shop was opened on Nevsky Prospect and there was a workshop with a hand machine for making chocolate with it. Then steam engines and huge workshops existed only in the dreams of the company's founder. For 8 years, the firm of J. Borman achieved such serious success that in 1870 at the All-Russian Exhibition in St. Petersburg its products received a bronze medal. After 2 years, factory buildings were built, especially for a chocolate factory, on Angliyskiy Prospect.
In 1876, the enterprise of Georges Borman was awarded the title "Supplier of the Court of His Imperial Majesty with the right to represent the state emblem on its labels." In that year, such a high assessment of the company's activities contributed to the expansion of the range of products manufactured by the factory, and the development of additional markets. The first wholesale warehouse of the company's products in the Apraksin dvor was opened, & two years later the wholesale warehouses were already opened in Moscow & Nizhny Novgorod. In the same year, 1878, Georges Bormann’s company received its first gold medal at the World Exhibition in Paris.
By 1895, G. N. Borman’s firm received two more gold medals from the exhibition in Paris and an honorary diploma with a medal from the exhibition in Chicago. The original design of the highest quality products with the stamp "GB" knew and loved the entire Russia. Competent workers on the best equipment made so much sweets, and the company's turnover grew so much that Georgy Nikolaevich Borman in 1895 decided to establish a partnership with a fixed capital of 300,000 rubles. The transition to the new organization of the enterprise, the proper distribution of the shares and the additional funds that emerged as a result of their sale, all this made it possible to expand production. In 1896 a biscuit factory was built in Petersburg. In Kharkov, the Partnership opened 2 factories for the production of chocolate and sponge cake.
In the same year, the Partnership participated in the All-Russian Exhibition in Nizhny Novgorod and received the highest award - the right to represent the state emblem. Since then, a double-headed eagle and figures of 1896 have appeared on all products of the Partnership. In addition to external regalia confirming the quality of products, there are also indicators of growth in the capital of the Partnership, whose fixed capital has increased from 300,000 to 1,100,000 rubles over five years.
The name of Georgiy Nikolaevich Borman was firmly associated in the minds of contemporaries not only with a huge amount of "GB" brand sweets, with competent & successful business management, with advanced production technologies. The products of the Georges Borman Factory Partnership were Russia's pride & represented the industry of the Russian Empire abroad with dignity.
