The Sussex Ginger Ale Factory was built at 67 Pleasant Avenue, Sussex, in 1910 by the Sussex Mineral Springs Company. The company was founded by S. H. White and G. Armstrong after the former discovered mineral waters on Church Avenue in 1895. The factory used this water to produce ginger ale, including Sussex Golden Ginger Ale, which has a darker color and stronger flavor than the more common dry ginger ale.
 
In 1911, competition arose in the form of the P&B bottling company, founded by J. Howard Pearn and G. Percy Bolton, but in 1929, the two firms merged into Sussex Ginger Ale Ltd. The next year, renovations took place on this factory that doubled its daily production from 5,000 bottles to 10,000.
 
Eventually, the factory ceased production and has since been converted into an apartment building. However, Sussex Golden Ginger Ale is still locally produced and sold by Keurig Dr Pepper Inc (formerly Dr Pepper Snapple Group.)
