THEMAFirmendarstellung
TEXTThe manufacture of kegs is one of the most important industries of New York, and is of a very progressive and useful character. The leading and best known factory in this line is the well known concern of Messrs. C. J. Chapman & Co., Nos. 61 to 69 Tenth Avenue, corner of 14th Street. This business was originally established in 1871 by Mr. James W. Lewis, and continued until 1883, when Mr. C. J. Chapman formed a partnership with Mr. R. Arnold, of the firm of W. H. Popham & Co., Mr. Arnold being the special partner and Mr. Chapman conducting the business. Mr Chapman is one of the most practical and experienced keg manufacturers in the United States, while for honorable business methods and untiring energy and skill he has no superior. The factory is most eligibly and centrally located at the corner of Tenth Avenue and 14th Street, and is very spacious and commodious, one hundred by one hundred and twenty-five feet in area, admirably fjtted up with every possible appliance for the carrying on of the business. A large force of skilled coopers is constantly employed in the manufacture of kegs of every description, including liquor, spice, butter, pickle, color, lard, white lead, and also barrels of every description, and firkins, casks, etc. it is a generally accepted fact in the community that all work turned out by Mr. Chapman is made from the best white oak timber, no such inferior staves being allowed here as are used by certain other manufacturers, and the reputation built up by this house ensures the expansion and permanent success of this useful enterprise. The trade extends all over this city and its vicinity, including Brooklyn and Jersey City, and to show the demand that exists for these articles and their popularity and excellence the firm has one customer who alone takes as many as three thousand per month. The factory has a capacity of three thousand five hundred per month, and is one of the most ably managed enterprises in New York, reflecting the greatest possible credit upon Messrs. Chapman & Co., whose social, financial and business status in the community ranks foremost among the solid sterling business men and citizens of the metropolis.
