JOHN DUFF & SON LTD.
Over Fifty Years in Packing Business
[The Welland Tribune and Telegraph, 3 May 1921]
John Duff & Son, Limited, of Hamilton is one of our oldest packing houses in Ontario. Over fifty years ago the firm was established in a small way and through lean years and fat has carried on, ever growing, always progressive imbued with the same conservative constructive spirit bequeathed by its founder.
It is interesting to note that in the fifty-three years of the firm’s history, the telephone, the automobile, electric power and the motor truck have come to supplant the clumsy devices of that earlier day; and that while their packing plant, office, store rooms and delivery system have kept pace with modern developments, the Duff methods of curing ham and bacon have remained substantially the same. Many processes, however, have been improved and standardized, and many new lines of product added to the list of table delicacies turned out by this enterprising firms.
Charles Duff, president of the company, who has literally grown up with the business, and has practical knowledge of every department from the live-stock to the finished product is actually engaged in the management, and much of the scrupulous cleanliness and general efficiency of the concern is due to his careful supervision.
The Horse Shoe Products of this firm are well-known to the trade and always rank first in point of quality.
