While New Zealand is this month celebrating its one hundredth anniversary as a unit of the British Empire, one commercial firm, has the proud record of having been established in the Dominion even before this country was officially annexed by Great Britain. The company is L. D. Nathan and Company. Ltd., of Auckland. .This firm celebrates, this year, the centenary of its establishment as a company in Auckland, but its first stocks were opened at Kororareka, Bay of Islands, in 1838 by Mr David Nathan, founder of the firm, whose grandsons and great grandsons are now directors of the company. The directors claim for their firm an unbroken record in association with the history and development of New Zealand.
