Isaac Reckitt (1792–1862) was the founder of Reckitt & Sons, a business that emerged to become Reckitt Benckiser, one of the United Kingdom's largest consumer goods businesses. CareerInitially establishing a milling business in Boston with his older brother and then a corn business in Nottingham on his own, Isaac Reckitt acquired a starch-making business in Hull in 1840.[1] Under his leadership the business diversified into black lead and washing blue manufacturing.[1] By the time of his death in 1862 the business employed 210 people and had become one of the most successful businesses in Hull.[1] The firm was left equally to three of his sons, George (1825–1900), Francis (1827–1917) and James (1833–1924).[2] See also
