Port of San Diego Honors Tuna Cannery Workers

admin — Sun, 11 Apr 2010 08:38:56 +0000

Port Matters: Episode 23. A public art project honoring the thousands of San Diegans who worked in the once-thriving tuna canning industry will be dedicated by the Port of San Diego. “The Cannery Workers Tribute-Parque del Sol,” is located at the southwest corner of Cesar Chavez Parkway and Crosby Road, near Cesar Chavez Park.

The site was the location where many workers took a break from the canneries that were housed in what is now the Northrop Grumman Shipbuilding/Continental Maritime property. From 1912 to 1986, the property was occupied by tuna canning companies such as Premier Packing Company, International Packing Corporation, Van Camp Packing Company, Westgate Sea Products Company, Hopkins Inc., Westgate-California Foods and Bumble Bee Seafoods. Other nearby canneries included the California Tuna Canning Company and High Seas Tuna Pack Company.

How do you determine if a company in the United States is a corporation?

admin — Thu, 08 Apr 2010 18:10:02 +0000

Besides having the word ‘Corporation’/'Corp’/'Inc’ in its name? If we search the company in its website, what are signs that it is a corporation? thanks!

I don’t think there is a perfect way to tell from the company’s website, but if you look up the company at the county (any county in which they have an office and do business) website you should be able to find out there how they are incorporated. Go to your county’s website and search for "Registered Agents" for a company – the incorporation info is in the same place (at least it is where I live).

What’s the difference between a Limited Liability Company and a Limited Liability Corporation?

What’s the difference between a Limited Liability Company and a Limited Liability Corporation?

A corporation is given many legal rights as an entity separate from its owners. This form of business is characterized by the limited liability of its owners, the issuance of shares of easily transferable stock, and existence as a going concern. Incorporation gives the company separate legal standing from its owners and protects those owners from being personally liable in the event that the company is sued (a condition known as limited liability).

The Limited Liability Company (LLC) is a type of hybrid business structure that is designed to provide the limited liability features of a corporation and the tax efficiencies and operational flexibility of a partnership. A popular choice for sole proprietors who are looking to incorporate simply to protect personal assets or secure additional loans, the LLC is thought to be one of the easiest and least expensive forms of ownership to organize.

Professional corporations (PC) and professional limited liability companies (PLLC) are formed for the purpose of providing professional services. State laws determine what constitutes professional services and this classification often differs from state to state. Professional services usually include medical, accounting and finance, legal, and architectual services (but again, this does differ across states).

Which is smaller, company or corporation?
Which do you say ’small company’,or ’small corporation?’
Which do you say ‘large company’ or ‘large corporation’?

well it’s not about size. a company is an entity owened by 2 or more people. these people are personally responsible and liable for all debts and all troubles and issues. if a compnay goes bankrupt, the owners go bankrupt and if there are debts to be payed out, they can lose their personal assets.

a corporation is an entity treated legally as a person. the owners are not personally responsible for debts, the corporation is. if there is a law suit or debt to be settled, the corporation is punished not the individual owners. the corporatrion can have stocks sold in the market so it can have 100s of owners. the corporation’s assets can be sold to settle debts, ot the assets of the owners.

Guatemala and the United Fruit Company

admin — Fri, 02 Apr 2010 05:08:19 +0000

The United Fruit Company was a United States corporation that traded in tropical fruit (primarily bananas and pineapples) grown in Third World plantations and sold in the United States and Europe. The company was formed in 1899 from the merger of Minor C. Keith’s banana-trading concerns with Andrew W. Preston’s Boston Fruit Company. It flourished in the early and mid-20th century and came to control vast territories and transportation networks in Central America, the Caribbean coast of Colombia, Ecuador, and the West Indies. Though it competed with the Standard Fruit Company for dominance in the international banana trade, it maintained a virtual monopoly in certain regions.

The company had a deep and long-lasting impact in the economic and political development of several Latin American countries. Critics often accused it of exploitative neocolonialism and described it as the archetypal example of the influence of a multinational corporation on the internal politics of the so-called “banana republics” (a term coined by O. Henry). After a period of financial decline, United Fruit was merged with Eli M. Black’s AMK in 1970 to become the United Brands Company. In 1984, Carl Lindner, Jr. transformed United Brands into the present-day Chiquita Brands International.

The United Fruit Company was frequently accused of bribing government officials in exchange for preferential treatment, exploiting its workers, contributing little by way of taxes to the countries in which it operated, and working ruthlessly to consolidate monopolies. Latin American journalists sometimes referred to the company as el pulpo (”the octopus”), and leftist parties in Central and South America encouraged the Company’s workers to strike. Criticism of the United Fruit Company became a staple of the discourse of the communist parties in several Latin American countries, where its activities were often interpreted as illustrating Lenin’s theory of capitalist imperialism. Major Latin American writers sympathetic to more independence from foreign governments and corporations, such as Carlos Luis Fallas of Costa Rica, Ramón Amaya Amador of Honduras, Miguel Ángel Asturias of Guatemala, Eduardo Galeano of Uruguay, Gabriel García Márquez of Colombia, and Pablo Neruda of Chile, denounced the Company in their literature.

The business practices of United Fruit were also frequently criticized by journalists, politicians, and artists in the United States. Little Steven released a song called “Bitter Fruit” about the company’s misdeeds. In 1950, Gore Vidal published a novel (Dark Green, Bright Red) in which a thinly fictionalized version of United Fruit supports a military coup in a thinly fictionalized Guatemala.

Eli M. Black (April 9, 1921 – February 3, 1975) was a Jewish-American businessman who controlled the United Brands Company. His son, Leon Black, is a founding member of private equity firm Apollo Management.

In 1975, the Securities and Exchange Commission uncovered a $2.5 million bribe that United Brands had agreed to pay Honduran president Oswaldo López Arellano in return for reducing taxes on banana exports.

A few weeks before the scandal broke, Black went to his office on the forty-fourth floor of the Pan Am Building in Manhattan, bashed out the window with his briefcase, and jumped to his death on Park Avenue.

After Black’s suicide, Cincinnati-based American Financial Group, one of millionaire Carl Lindner, Jr.’s companies, bought into United Fruit.
