| THEMA | Firmendarstellung |
| TEXT | The trade in groceries, considered as a branch of commerce, is probably the most important existing in this country, representing as it does an immense capital, and furnishing employment to thousands of persons. New York is not behind any city in the civilized world in the extent and magnitude of its grocery business, and the enterprise which characterizes her representative firms in this branch of commerce is not equalled in any other American city. One of the leading houses in the metropolis engaged in this trade is that of Messrs. Macy & Co., No. 757 Sixth Avenue, corner 43rd Street, with branch at No. 438 in the same avenue. This business was founded by the present proprietors in 1851, and since that year has obtained an excellent reputation for the purity and reliability of its fancy and staple groceries. Probably few articles that enter into daily consumption are so difficult to obtain pure and of good quality as tea, coffee, wines and liquors. It is only, therefore, by the exercise of. care in purchasing either by the consumer or retailer that quality can be assured. The goods of Messrs. Macy & Co.'s establishments are highly esteemed throughout the city for their freshness and absolute purity, and customers have the complete satisfaction of knowing that nothing inferior or adulterated will be sold to them. They carry a very large and valuable stock and transact an immense business throughout New York and its vicinity, especially in tea, coffee, wines and liquors, also in hermetically sealed goods and in foreign and American delicacies. The firm possesses ample facilities for conducting all transactions under the most favorable auspices, and is always prepared to render its customers every possible advantage. The individual members of this copartnership are Messrs. T. E. and C. H. Macy, who are greatly esteemed by the community for their strict rectitude and integrity, and have ever been active supporters of any measure conducive to the benefit and welfare of their fellow-citizens. The reputation of this house for enterprise and liberality is not excelled by any contemporary concern, while the resources and facilities at the command of the firm make it one of the most desirable establishments with which to form pleasant and permanent relations. |
