Historique
The firm of George White and Company, tea and (briefly) rubber brokers, first appears in trade directories in 1873 with premises at 23 Rood Lane. In 1904 the firm entered into partnership with Wilton Bartleet, an English tea broker working in Colombo, trading there as George White, Bartleet and Company (the London operation continued as before). The partnership with Bartleet was dissolved in 1912, but George White and Company continued to act as Bartleet's London agents. In 1910, the firm branched into rubber broking. However, this part of the business appears to have been hived off in 1927 with the creation of George White, Yuille and Company Limited, rubber brokers.
George White and Company changed its name to George White and Company (Tea Brokers) Limited in 1931, and to George White, Sanderson (Tea Brokers) Limited in c 1965. It merged in 1973 with Gow, Wilson Limited, tea, rubber and produce brokers of 82 Middlesex Street.
The firm of George White, Yuille and Company Limited disappears from trade directories after 1963; its subsequent history is unknown.
