M. O’Brien
The recent mystery buyer of a block of shares in Christchurch footwear company M O’Brien and Co, Ltd — amounting to about an 8 per cent holding — is “a soundly-based private Otago company seeking to broaden their investment base on a limited scale,” O’B chairman (Mr G .W. Hunt) announced. “This disclosure removes concern which had been felt by our customers, our overseas associates and our staff which under present stock exchange rules could have continued on almost indefinitely, considerably affecting the affairs of our business,” added Mr Hunt.
