Sandwich is a historic town in Kent, south-east England. It was one of the Cinque Ports and still has many original mediaeval buildings.

The local economy has benefited from significant investment by Pfizer, a US pharmaceuticals company, which has built a research & development centre near Sandwich, employing over 1,500 people. Viagra, Pfizer's treatment for erectile dysfunction, was discovered here.
