About SANBORN HERMANOS S.A. DE C.V

Walter Sanborn, a pharmacist from California, USA, along with his brother Frank, opened "Sanborn American Pharmacy", their first store in the historic center of Mexico City. After the Revolution, Frank Sanborn rented and remodeled the Casa de los Azulejos, a historic building that had fallen into disrepair, transforming it into a luxurious restaurant, tea room, soda fountain, gift shop, pharmacy, and candy store. The reopening in 1920 was a success and was attended by many personalities from the country's political, social, and cultural life.
