Around 1904. Alfred and son John Walton moved to large newly built premises in Grote St, Adelaide, a short distance from the West Tce, corner. They then merged with Fowler's Lion Confectionery Works and operated in the style of A. Walton & Co, Ltd.
The business successfully operated until the early 1950s.
