In 1921 the factory was severely damaged by fire, but the subsequent rebuild afforded the opportunity to expand the factory. In 1955 the company was acquired by Cussons Sons & Co., chaired by Leslie Cussons makers of the famous brand Cussons Imperial Leather soap. After the acquisition Cussons kept the Gerard Bros. factory in use. In 1975 Cussons Sons & Co. were themselves acquired by Paterson Zochonis (recently renamed to PZ Cussons). In 2005 PZ Cussons finally closed the old Gerard Bros. factory, and manufacturing was moved to Pathumthani, Thailand. (en)
