Pereira Gamba y Compañia

Abstract

The image presents a news item called PEREIRA GAMBA I COMPAÑIA. When the establishment that gave rise to the respectable AJENCIA and commission house headed by Mr. Nicolas Pereira was founded, he now said for eighteen years: "We announce to the public the establishment of an office that will greatly facilitate purchases, sales and all kinds of transactions: the circulation and discount of promissory notes, vouchers and papers of credit, bills of exchange and obligations: the settlement of accounts: the collection of the debts of individuals and of the national Treasury, and the practice of those procedures that require special knowledge in laws, decrees, regulations, or in some science or art, of an office, in short, that will open new and greater outlets for the products of agriculture, industry and commerce, serving as an intermediary in negotiations and saving the buyer and the seller the work and time they lose in. Looking for each other: because the one who buys and the one who sells, the one who offers their services and the who needs the provision of one or more of them, will naturally and necessarily have to meet. "For the performance of such a vast program, the Ministry has all the necessary elements and a sufficient number of assistants, and there will be more every day, because in the same proportion that the request increases, the offer of services grows. "Thus, then, the businessmen, the owners, the lawyers, the litigants, those who need dependents, those who seek placement or work, those who buy and those who sell, must go to the office of the Ajencia office; everyone who needs a thing or the provision of a service and everyone who offers their services or things.There where all the news and data that can guide the merchant come together: where competition is free and orders and offers intersect, the setting where the prices are safe and the deals are fixed and concluded soon. "The merchants, knowing the need for this kind of establishment, have instituted the Stock Exchanges, or places where they meet to facilitate and provide security for exchange operations; and an idea of the importance of the Stock Exchanges can be formed, only by the magnificence of the monuments that many large cities have consecrated to them. We do not intend to found a Stock Exchange, although our establishment may very well be the origin of its institution. We did not demand the personal attendance of the merchants, but only the news of what was search and do what is offered, be it services or things; and we do not charge any remuneration for entering the corresponding note in the records, nor for the publication of the necessary notices, and not even for carrying out the proceedings of the case until the completion of the negotiations. "The Agency makes purchases and sales by commission under the form of consignment or in any other way, and instead of restricting, as commission agents and consignees do, their operations to a single type, it strives to expand its sphere of love, until creating an assortment of corresponding offers and demands: does not look for buyers or sellers for a single class of objects or services: fills the role of intermediary in all classes of objects or services Fills the role of intermediary in all classes of negotiations centralize the order and supply of all kinds of objects and services." The turn of business naturally gave the character of a specialty to the company with respect to various branches; but wishing the founder to give it all the development and extension that it can have, educated by the experience of ten and eight years and enjoying credit and the most extensive clientele that there can be in any profession in the country, he has asked us for the reproduction of your ad, authorizing us to ensure, as we do, that any order or commission will be attended to, however insignificant it may be. The dispatch of a warrant in the Courts, the purchase or sale of any object, the practice of any procedure, such as the largest negotiation for the insurance of farms, merchandise, crops, etc. will be equally attended. The division of labor, the activity of employees; the logical chaining of all tasks and the unity of action communicated to the entire establishment by a single intelligence and a single will, work wonders. The immense latitude of the company does not prevent the existence of specialized dependencies, such as MACHINES; On the contrary, it can be said that the establishment is nothing more than a vast set of specialties, like the set of many different devices, all of which work at the impulses of a single motor. We have seen the new premises, arranged on the upper floor of the house owned by Mr. Pereira, at the corner of San Juan de Dios, in the style of English offices, for the office of the Agency's business; Knowing the accounting system, that of the records and book
