Dyer’s Ozonic Aerated Waters Co. Ltd, Cannonbury Road, Ramsgate (The Ozonic Mineral Waters Co. Ltd., 1920-1934)

This company commenced circa 1903 as Dyer & Co. Ltd, and traded from the Cannonbury Road Works until 1920.  It then took over Philpott’s premises in Cavendish Road, only to move again two years later, to Broad Street, Ramsgate.  By 1934 the company had changed its name to Ozonic Ltd and transferred to Westwood Road, Broadstairs.  Between then and final closure in 1964 the company expanded rapidly, opening branches in Sandwich, Whitstable, Dover, Ashford, Strood, Herne Bay and Hawkhurst.  Most of these branches became redundant from the late 1930s onwards and had either been sold off or closed by 1960.
