The company was founded by James Fludger Shew in London in 1849. During the course of history it changed its name to James J Shew, J F Shew, and starting 1879 to Shew & Co. In 1915 it was purchased by A.E.Staley & Co, and was renamed again to Staley, Shew & Co. There is a possibility of a spin-off retail company J.J.Shew in c1875, listed at the same addresses the Shew & Co was occupying before or after the spin-off.
