BROWN, EWING, & CO., PRINCES STREET AND MANSE STREET, DUNEDIN. JpiROM THE ‘SUPPLEMENTARY NEW s: (Printed by Ferguson and Mitchell during the Fete in aid of the Benevolent Asylum, on the premises of Messrs Guthrie and Larnach, May 24, 1876.) OUR LOCAL INDUSTRIES. Messes Hallenstein Beos., of the New Zealand Clothing Factory, following the cxmple of some of the large manufacturers at Home, and more especially with a view of preventing the importation of English clothing, have opened an extensive retail establishment for the sale of their manufactures. For this purpose, they have fitted up commodious premises at the corner of the Octagon and Princes-street, which are now open to the Public. This branch will be under the immediate management of Mr Laurenson, and under the personal supervision of Mr B. Hallenstein, the head of the N.Z. firm. Messrs Hallenstein Bros., under the management of Mr Anderson, a partner in the Wholesale and Factory Branch, started the New Zealand Clothing Factory about two and-a-half years ago. They commenced on a comparatively small scale ; at present they employ between 200 and 300 hands. They have had to overcome many difficulties and much prejudice, but now their goods, as will be seen from the ships’ manifests, are being sent to all parts of New Zealand. In Dunedin only they have found persistent opposition on the part of the larger houses, who are glutting this market with imported goods, and, no doubt, the retailers find it to their advantage to push these in preference to local manufactures. The Proprietors of the New Zealand Clothing Factory have therefore very judiciously decided to introduce their Manufactures direct to the large consuming population of Dunedin ; and, in order to do so effectually, they have determined to sell a Single Garment at wholesale price. The selling price is to be marked in plain figures on every article, from which no abatement will be made. The business is to be conducted strictly on the cash principle, and all goods must be paid for on delivery j but any article not found suitable may be exchanged, or the money returned. As will be seen from the garments presented by the New Zealand Clothing Factory in aid of the Benevolent Asylum, and now exhibited in this building, they are superior in style and quality, and at a proportionately lower price than anything that can be imported. But irrespective of all these advantages, it is to the interest of everyone to support an industry which employs local labour, and is a direct benefit to the butcher, baker, farmer, mechanic, shopkeeper, merchant, and to all sections of the community,— [Adyt.]
