CHILLED BEEF TRADE
NEW ZEALAND SUPPLIES REPLY TO CRITICISM (Per Press Association.) AUCKLAND, this day. Disagreement with the recent criticism of the quality of New Zealand chilled beef entering the British market was expressed by Mr. P. J. Borthwick, of Masterton, a director of Thomas Borthwick and Sons, Australasia Limited, on his return from Australia yesterday.
“New Zealand chilled beef is doing far better than was ever anticipated,” said Air. Borthwiek. The optimism of those concerned in starting the industry a few years ago had been more than justified. It was only it question of time when the New Zealand product would fetch Argentine prices. New Zealand was holding her own with everyone, and a wonderful development had been achieved.
•Mr. Borthwiek said that the Australian lambing season had been very late this year, and the meat would probably come into the market at about the same time as the New Zealand product, instead of earlier as was usual. He was afraid the price would suffer as a consequence, especially as the Australian season had been a good one.
