Edwin Tucker's was founded in 1831 at Ashburton, on the edge of Dartmoor trading as Maltsters and Seed Merchants. Today, it remains one of the oldest surviving independent agricultural companies in Britain. We continue our agricultural and seed merchanting in Ashburton and Crediton with the addition of our Tuckers Country Stores.

Tucker's Maltings in Newton Abbot is the only working Malthouse left in the West Country, and the only one open to the public in England.

It was John Parnell Tucker, Edwin Tucker's eldest son who selected the site for the maltings in 1898. Work began on it's construction in January 1900 and officially opened for business on Monday the 5th November 1900. The final cost was £8000.
