A SOUND INVESTMENT. FROZEN PRODUCTS, LTD. It speaks well for the quality of the goods manufactured by Frozen Products, Ltd., that the present factory has become totally inadequate to cope with the. business offering. The growth of the company’s business has been remarkable. The total sales for the first twelve months amounted to £4104, the second year the figures reached £ll,929, the third year and for the nine months ending June 30, 19-8, £19,234. . . . , So acute has the position become that the directors have decided that a bigger and more modern factory must be built if the company is to be able to supply the ever-increasing demand. To this end the capital ot the company has been increased to £OO,OOO. Existing shareholders and their friends subscribed for a big portion of the new issue, leaving only t 0,090 shares to offer to the public. Since the announcement last week there has been a wonderful response, and less than 15,000 shares are now available. Investors who desire to participate in the issue are advised to make early application. Write to-day for prospectus to Eric Lawson, Sharebroker, A.P.A. Building, 17 Grey Street, or to any member of the Wellington Stock Exchange.—Advt.
