Harrisons and Eastern Export Limited was formed in 1913 in England through the amalgamation of the Australasian interests of Harrisons and Crosfield's Colombo and Calcutta branches with the business of Eastern Export Proprietary Limited (a subsidiary of Fraser Ramsay Proprietary) to merge their tea businesses. The Company was re-registered in Colombo after it went into voluntary liquidation. With a head office in Colombo and branch office in Calcutta, the Company exported tea from Ceylon to Australia and New Zealand. In 1953 Harrisons and Crosfield Limited purchased the entire share capital from Harrisons Ramsay Proprietary. For historical notes on the Company see CLC/B/112/MS37392.

The records of Harrisons and Crosfield and its subsidiary and secretarial companies were transferred to Guildhall Library Manuscripts Section between 1990 and 1998. The records were presented as a gift to the Library, except the minute books of some subsidiary companies which are held as a deposit. The Guildhall Library Manuscripts Section merged with the London Metropolitan Archives in 2009.
