7UP, the original UNCOLA(R), is a leading brand in the beverage portfolio of Plano, Texas-based Cadbury Schweppes Americas Beverages (CSAB), a subsidiary division of Cadbury Schweppes plc (NYSE:CSG). CSAB is one of the largest producers of soft drinks and premium beverages in the Americas.
The soft drink 7UP was developed by Charles Leiper Grigg in 1929 at the Howdy Co., St. Louis. The fizzy beverage that came to be known as the uncola originally went by the unwieldy moniker Bib-Label Lithiated Lemon-Lime soda. By 1936, when Howdy Co. changed its name to Seven-Up Co., Hamblett Charles Grigg, son of the founder, had joined the company as a marketer and designer. H.C. Grigg, who had studied art, produced the product's first logo, the number seven with wings.
