Port Moresby, March 10.

Anderson’S Island Industries

LIMITED has changed its name to Anderson’s Pacific Trading Company Limited, and the business has been re organised with a capital of half a million pounds.

The firm’s interests include meat freezers at Port Moresby, Lae and Rabaul, a slipway and tug service at Rabaul, and a fleet of fishing boats which is now being organised.

It was a good day for the Territory when the Managing Director, Mr. A. W.

Anderson, decided he liked Island life.

He now is developing a big fishing in dustry with the dual objective of supply ing Island requirements and building up an export trade with Australia. In due time a modern fishing fleet will no doubt be in operation along the Territory Coast line.
