BEMARKABLE GROWTH OP A NEW ZEALAND • BUSINESS, * > * r|WE folio-ring interesting interview is -§• reproduced from the Slercantilo tiaucUe of 23rd March, 1910 :— interviewing Mr. George Davies, vre «jire surprised to find tho founder of «U,ch sv^ tremendous institution as tho George levies Tailoring business quito & young 1 man, oiv tbu aida of thirty. As we talked with Mr. Davie*, we began to realise what md important part his optimism; practicality, energy, and truly wonderful power of organisation had played in tke> firm** .remarkable progress. Three yean ago Mr, ])l>vi«a" started- wifh one small chop in: dtrKtchurch — to-day h* >s running tho tm>st ,pg*a\ie single tailoring bUHinoey in Wo- were intensely int«rsstod t«j[/K«v the zoMycllpus 4 automatjo «yst*m os which the whole business is run — a system jti£B£?xF&is~v!idi machinc-ILkc precision, V^d- *Uo w 6 Mr. Davie* to tec, from his {Head Ofece in Chriitchnrch, every movement in, connection with his business right through. Kew Zealand. From the office. Mr. Davies took us through i tho Christchurch, warehouite, mnd ithence en to his ■workroom*, where we were much impressed with tho caro and interest in. their work displayed by tho worker*. Only rho^most Expert' irorkers sue employed, and* evidently Mr. Daries bas learnt the secret of getting tbe very best, out oC his employees. We learned <t«at Warehouse* and Workrooms, such as these, were established ia all of tho four centres of tho Dominion — that 700 skilled assistants and scientific) cutters were, employed, and that -more than £30.000 per annum was paid in salaries by the firm, J'hich amount >vill considerably increase uring tho coming year, owing to the t»pid and nevor-ceasmg growth of tho business, and that the retail branches of |he firm throughout Now Zealand number fo less than 39. fn asking how it had been possible to attain such great result* in so short a time, Mr. Darics informed us that his basic principles had been to do business to tho mutual mdvantage of both huyer and Heller, avnd to do thin hi* method- ha.t been to eliminate from his husinen the unjust credit vyrtem, which necessitates thoao who do ~jMy< having to pay foe thc«c who never pay, -and to, carry on his busincfs only on the siric}«rt .cash lines. Very little considertdion is- needed to see the gigantic po\^»'-oft-ca«h in this bntono??. Tho firm buj^tg- for cash as a rccult of selling' for c*sa.''has (ho largest purciiasing power of may tailoring firm in the Dominion. The Tweeds and Worsteds used are brought Birect from the Mills to Mr. Davies' own Warehouses, thus cutting out all middlewen's profit. This, combined with the fact that each suit made is paid for c»?Q down by the Customer, and that ihc firm, owing 1 %o an enormous turnover, can afford to get only a very small profit- on each individual tjuit, allows the firm to produce genuine Tailor-made suits to order at a i<aving of M least £2 on other Tailors' prices. Every garment George Davies turns out Is guaranteed Tailor-made, and a written guarantee bearing Mr. Davies' own signature, for "Satisfaction or your money refunded." goes with every garment ordered. It is evident that the whole business has Men built on a scientific study of economic laws, and as a New Zealand concern the greatest Tailoring business -in Australasia, nnd one of ' the greatest in the World, Started from nothing, and built by a New ZeaJ&ndcr in three short years to tbo magnificent organisation it is to-day, it represents au accomplishment thav. every New Zealandcr may well be proud of. Mr. Davies himself consider? bis business fm only starting now, sad \re wish, him all ike success he deterves in the furtliri tieT4lopmc"ts of his big undertaking.
