Fortnum & Mason (F&M) has the "food fit for a queen" market cornered. The 300-year-old upscale British department store, famous for its jams, teas, and sauces, provides the Queen with her annual supply of Christmas puddings. Founded in 1707, the company's store in Piccadilly houses five restaurants, including the elegant St. James's Restaurant, and a wine bar. While the majority of its sales are derived from food, F&M also sells fragrances and cosmetics, gifts, lingerie, luggage, tea sets, and other housewares. The firm also operates stores in Japan through a joint venture with department store group Isetan. F&M is owned by Whittington Investments, which also owns Associated British Foods.
