Vitax is a fourth generation family-owned business with roots laid down long before the modern gardening industry as it is known today even existed. Our origins can be traced back to G H Richards, established in 1880 and based in Bermondsey, South London. Mr Richards was a manufacturer of insecticides and supplier of horticultural sundries.
