2025: "The Museum of Brands is a museum in London that focuses on the history of consumer culture from Victorian times to the present day. The museum was set up as a registered charity in 2002,[1][irrelevant citation] and is located at 111–117 Lancaster Rd., Notting Hill, London W11 1QT.
The museum showcases over 12,000 items from the Robert Opie Collection which were housed in the Museum of Advertising and Packaging at Gloucester Docks from 1984 until its closure in October 2001.[2][irrelevant citation] The collection moved to Notting Hill in 2005.[3] Another display of the Robert Opie Collection at Opie's Museum of Memories formed part of the now-defunct Wigan Pier Experience. The museum receives over 40,000 visitors annually.[4] The museum does not allow access (beyond what is on display to the public) to their collections for academic research.[5]"
