Provenance – R A Lister & Co.:
R A Lister & Co. was founded in 1867 by Robert Ashton Lister. After falling out with his father, following exhibiting the family’s products at the Paris Exhibition of the same year, Robert founded the company in the former Howard’s Lower Mill, on Water Street in Dursley, to manufacture agricultural machinery. Through the rest of the 19th Century, the company was responsible for purchasing the rights to, and then perfecting the design of Mikael Pedersen’s cream separator, which, by centrifugal force allowed for a constant running speed and more regular consistency of cream. Robert even transported the first cream separator to Western Canada by horse buggy, over the plains of Alberta.
The turn of the 20th Century saw expansion into other products, such as sheep shearing equipment, milk churns, wooden butter barrels, as well as producing garden antique furniture from wooden off-cuts. Through the first half of the 20th Century, the company moved into the production of internal combustion engines, including the introduction of the Lister Auto-Truck in 1926, for the movement of goods around factories, stations and dockyards.
In 1967, the company was bought out by engineering and aerospace giant Hawker Siddeley, who later merged them with their old rival Petter Diesels, forming Lister Petter Ltd in 1986. However, the 1990s saw a decline in demand from overseas, and Hawker Siddeley itself was bought out by BTR plc in 1992, who in turn merged with Seibe in 1999 to form Invensys plc, and Lister Petter was sold off, with various aspects of the business portioned off to different companies.
In modern times, the company Lister Petter, having survived various mergers and buyouts, as well as three periods of administration in the 2010s, still survives to this day, supplying industrial and marine powerplants.
