Products, packaging and process technology have evolved substantially since Lyons Magnus was founded in 1852. One thing, however, has remained unchanged - Lyons' commitment to offer the food industry unsurpassed product quality and variety. Our reputation for providing products with "Finer Flavor" begins with Grenadine Syrup - the original product packed under the Lyons brand. It continued with Lyons Root Beer, a favorite throughout the West during the early and middle 20th century. Today, Lyons offers a broad line of value added fruit, beverage, and chocolate products to both the food service and industrial dairy segments
