30 dez 1899 ano - Dairy becomes increasingly dominant industry in harbour

Descrição:

Dairy production on the Peninsula remained small-scale until the
1890s when co-operative cheese factories were established first (1893) in German Bay
(Takamatua) and then (1895) in Barry’s Bay. In 1895-96 factories were also opened at
Little Akaloa, Okains Bay and Wainui. In the following years a butter factory at Le Bons
Bay and a cheese factory at Duvauchelles were added to the Peninsula’s tally of dairy
factories. By 1900 dairying was challenging cocksfoot as the Peninsula’s chief industry.
But once again, apart from serving as the point of shipment for some butter and cheese,
and from being the location of the businesses of merchants who traded in dairy
commodities, the proliferation of dairy factories on the Peninsula at the end of the 19th
century had relatively little impact on the development of the town
