SAMUEL McLARDY & Co.

69, Shudehill, Manchester


SAMUEL MCLARDY & CO., WHOLESALE JEWELLERS, LONDON, BIRMINGHAM, AND SHEFFIELD WAREHOUSEMEN, IMPORTERS OF FOREIGN TOYS AND FANCY GOODS, AND PIPE MANUFACTURERS, &C.,
69, SHUDEHILL, MANCHESTER.


THIS notable business was founded in the year 1865 by the present principal, Mr. Samuel McLardy, and was for a long time carried on at Nos. 14 and 16, Miller Street. In March, 1890 the concern was transferred to its present headquarters in Shudehill, a large and very handsome five-storey warehouse, the general plan and organisation of which is conducive to the utmost, convenience in the administration of the immense business engaged in. Here the system pursued allows each department to deal exclusively in its own special line, and although the entire concern is under the one proprietorship, this great warehouse may be said to accommodate six large and important businesses, each engaged in operations of the most extensive character within the scope of its own particular constitution. These several busy departments may be enumerated as follows:— (1) jewellery, comprising gold and silver watches, and all manner of jewellery and jewellers’ sundries, electro-plate in full variety, marble clocks, bronzes, regulators, barometers, combs, brushes, &c., &c., table cutlery of all classes; (2) leather, cabinet, and fancy goods, with carved wood brackets, Japanese and papier mache goods, ladies’ companions, work-boxes, plush brackets and mirrors, writing desks and jewel cases in wood and leather, ladies’ and gentlemen’s hand and travelling bags, fitted bags, school bags, portmanteaux and travelling trunks, fire screens, and all manner of fancy novelties, together with a specially fine array of purses, albums, and photo frames in all the newest designs; (3) hardware and furnishing goods, including coal vases in wood and iron, brass and iron bedsteads, fenders and fire-irons, tinware, hollow ware, enamelled ware, household brushes, toilet and chimney glasses, wood and nickel clocks, door mats, galvanised goods, &c., &c.; (4) glass and china, comprising all the newest and choicest productions in Bohemian vases and lustres, French and German china in figures and vases, English cut and ornamental glass, Parian figures, birds, fruits, flowers, shades in all styles and sizes, and other kindred articles; (5) toys and dolls, a department containing a wondrous variety of goods of all classes. The selection here is made from all the best English, continental, and American markets, and as Messrs. McLardy are constantly in direct communication with the various manufacturers, they are always in a position to secure the first consignment of bona fide novelties.

In each of the departments named above the stocks held are of a thoroughly representative character, and the extent of the firm’s trade enables them to offer their goods at prices which command the instant attention of retail dealers everywhere. A word of special commendation is due to the efficient manner in which each department is worked by its own special staff, an arrangement which ensures the careful execution and quick despatch of every order received. The whole routine of this great business is facilitated to a very notable extent by the internal plan of the premises, which has been specially designed and erected to suit the purposes of this particular trade. In 1877 Mr. McLardy added the above named departments to his original trade in pipes and tobacconists’ requisites. In this latter branch (which dates from the foundation of the house in 1865) he has attained an almost pre-eminent position, both as a merchant and a manufacturer. Indeed, there is probably no other house in the British Isles doing a larger trade in everything that appertains to the use of tobacco; and at Newton Heath Mr. McLardy has a wonderfully interesting factory, where clay pipes are turned out at the rate of about twenty millions per annum. Mr. McLardy has built up an enormous trade in all kinds of smokers’ fancy goods, and holds in this department a stock which cannot be surpassed in interest and variety. His goods always sell well, having been before the public for a quarter of a century, and he has from the first pursued the sound policy of considering the interests of his customers as in a large measure identical with his own. A tobacconist starting business can have his establishment equipped and stocked with absolutely everything essential to his trade, by simply placing himself in communication with Mr. McLardy and stating the extent of his requirements. This fact will serve as an illustration of the magnitude and comprehensiveness of the business controlled by this great Manchester house.

Mr. Samuel McLardy is a Scotchman by birth, and has all the shrewdness and keen commercial instincts of the North Briton. At the same time he is esteemed and respected by all who know him for his kindliness and manly, straightforward methods. He is a hard worker, never sparing himself any labour in the affairs of his business; and years of persevering industry and fair dealing have placed him at the head of a concern which takes high rank at the present day among the foremost English houses of its kind.
