Brown McFarlane was founded
in 1889 by Captain A R Brown,
a former P & O Chief Officer. Captain Brown had worked
in the Far East since 1868, charting and surveying the
coastline of Japan.
At the turn of the century Captain Brown joined forces
with a naval architect, George McFarlane
to establish A R Brown McFarlane & Co Ltd.
The company was involved in the building of ships for
Japan and export of machinery, electrical and other equipment,
evolving into a steel stockholder and trader to a wider
market.
A London office opened in 1915, to be followed by Antwerp,
New York and Tokyo, supported by a worldwide agent network. |
