J. Anderson (Salford)
of 164 Chapel Street, Salford
1892 'FOUNDED in 1869 by the present proprietor originally in Sydney Street, the business was removed about ten years ago to the more commodious premises now occupied at No. 164, Chapel Street. These comprise a spacious and well-appointed shop, together with extensive storage accommodation and well-equipped workshops. Mr. Anderson is a thoroughly practical man and employs a staff of experienced hands in the manufacture of saws, files, guillotine, perforating, chaff and chipped potato knives, &c.; he also does a large business as a dealer in coachmakers’, joiners’, and mechanics’ tools and cutlery. A large and thoroughly representative stock of these goods is held ready for immediate delivery, and by economical manufacture and prudent buying Mr. Anderson is enabled to give his customers exceptional advantages in quality and price. A special department is set apart for repairing, &c.; large circular saws are gulleted and hammered, band saws brazed, files are re-cut, and guillotine knives ground; all the work is carried out in the very best style, and at prices that will compare favourably with any other establishment. The business in every department receives the direct personal attention of the proprietor, and is conducted throughout with marked ability. Mr. J. Anderson is well known; his well-known practical skill and courteous attention to all the requirements of his customers has secured him the confidence and respect of a very extensive and well-established connection.[1]
