Domestic and Foreign Fruits, Nuts, Etc.
In this important branch we have
many responsible houses engaged in this
city. Some have large capital and have
very extended connections This in
dustry is indeed one of the most impor-
tant in the State. In domestic fruits
our city houses supply large local de-
mand and act as commission houses for
State growers. They also in some cases
dry our fruits and ship these extern
sively. In foreign fruits they import
largely and keep the market well sup
piled.
One of the most extensive of these
houses is that of D. 6. Camarinos.
About a month ago Mr.. Camarinos
bought the large business of the En-
erson Fruit Company and added it to
his already extensive trade. His con-
nections and channels of intercourse give
him a commanding position here in for
eign and domestic fruits. How well
equipped and independent I've is indeed
in this industry will be understood
when we state that his is first hands
house to a great extent. That is in
Honolulu he is the owner of a very large
plantation where he grows all kinds of
tropical fruits as we'll as choice vegeta
bles These, owing to the care shown
-, o,,1 oil
as the excellence of the climate, are Of
superb quality and command the best
prices. Mr. Camarinos has two large
pac ing houses, one in Acapulco and
another in Lower California. In Homo
lulu he has very excellent local trade
and conducts there an important bust
ness house for his products In this
city he now has two large stores or
rather depots for his fruits. One of these
is that formerly occupied by the En-
erson Fruit Company, 521 and 523 Sans
ONE street, which he has fitted up very
elegantly. This is a large concern and
is perfectly equipped for his business.
OF foreign fruit he receives consignments
constantly and through his New York
and foreign agents his supplies are al
WAYS of excellent quality. For fruit
growers throughout the State the facili
ties at the command of this house should
certainly commend it to their attention.
1t has fine trade and naturally can dis
pose Of consignments promptly and at
good figures. Nothing, therefore, spoils
in its hands, an important fact GER
tainlv for the farmer and fruit raiser
Mr.. Camarinos began business in
1876, dealing in foreign and domestic
fruits, nuts, ETC., and acting as commits
sion and shipping merchant. Since then
he has developed and extended his trade
until to-day his house ranks among our
leading commercial establishments.
Trade extends with it all over the city,
coast, Sandwich Islands, Mexico and
Territories and the Eastern States. He
does the most extensive business in his
line here, employs large force of hands
and ships by the carload to all parts of
the country. Mr.. Camarinos deals in all
kinds of California, Oregon and i'm
ported fruits and produce; and having
an extensive correspondence and keep
ing thoroughly posted on the market
and prices, he is enabled to procure the
highest prices for all goods shipped him.
He is a native of Greece, but has lived
here for many years, and is well known
and respected. Prompt, honorable and
energetic. he is ranked among our lead
inc merchants. Farmers and growers
will find it to their advantage to ship him
their goods-[S. F. Commercial Record,
