Did you know Avon started in 1886 as the California Perfume Company, in a small 20x25 ft. building in New York - by a man, David McConnell. And, "The company was named Avon in 1939, after the
river that runs through Stratford-On-Avon in the English Midlands. The name is a tribute to McConnell's favorite playwright, William Shakespeare, who hailed from the town." *from the Avon
website*
