ENGLISH CHOCOLATES TO BE MADE IN N.Z.
EFFECT OF HIGH TARIFF. Two well-known brands of English chocolate—Cadbury’s and Fry’s—are to be manufactured in New Zealand. . Experts will arrive in the Dominion shortly and an up-to-date plant is to bo erected at some centre which has yet to be chosen. These statements were made yesterday by Mr. G. Sara, New Zealand manager for Cadbury’s, chocolate manufacturers, Birmingham, who returned yesterday morning from England. The reason for the new development is tho high tariff imposed on imported chocolate by the New Zealand Government. Cadbury’s and Fry’s chocolates cost twice as much in the Dominion as they do in England. New Zealand will lose the revenue from this commodity, but will get the benefit of manufacture here.
