| THEMA | Firmendarstellung |
| TEXT | Prominent among the representative members of the trade is the well-known firm of Huntington Bros. & Co. The business was established eight years ago at No. 7 Laight Street, and has had a continuous and prosperous career to date. Since February 1, 1884, the concern has been located in its present premises, Nos. 326, 328, and 330 Canal Street, and which afford every facility for manufacturing upon a most extensive scale. The building the firm occupies is 28x65 feet in dimensions, four stories in height, and is fully equipped for the production of ladies' underwear, suits aud cloaks, and felt and flannel skirts in vast variety of styles and patterns. Mr. B. O. Huntington the surviving partner, is a merchant of ample practical experience and also superior executive abilities. He gives the closest personal supervision to every detail of production, and some idea of the magnitude of the trade may be gathered when we state that he employs an average force of from two hundred and fifty to three hundred hands; his sales extending all through the United States, Canada, and the West Indies. Both as regards material, elegance of style, and excellence of workmanship, his underwear, suits, and cloaks are general favorites and stand at the head of the trade, representative exponents of all that is desirable in these lines of clothing. Mr. Huntington also imports desirable grades of these goods from Europe, and in his handsome and spacious showroom on the first floor can be seen what is undoubtedly the finest and best assorted stock of underwear, skirts, cloaks, etc., that buyers can inspect. Selling by the package and case only, the firm has a heavy trade with our leading jobbers and large retail houses, and Mr. Huntington's honorable methods and recognized abilities insure for him a progressive enlargement of his patronage. It is now five years since Mr. B. O. Huntington has been sole proprietor of the business, and he has proved a worthy member of one of the city's most important and substantial industrial interests, honored and respected throughout commercial circles generally. |
