Hall & Sons Limited Please acknowledge the source as: Dunstan Collection, Flinders University Library. Identifier: DUN/Speeches/1605 © Copyright Estate Donald Allan Dunstan 120TH ANNIVERSARY OF GEO. HALL & SDNS LIMITED. It is a personal pleasure for me to congratulate the management of Geo. Hall Sons Limited on ths 120th anniversary of the company this year. Throughout their history, Hall's manufacturing activities have been located in the Norwood area which I have represented in the State Parliament since 1953. During visits to the factory on a number of occasions, I have been able to see at first hand that employeemanagement relations are notably harmonious. A continuous history of 120 years is an achievement of which any company can be justly proud. That the company is still managed by the fourth generation of the Hall family must, I feel sure, be a source of added satisfaction to them. In an age of large-scale corporate operation and takeover, it is gratifying to find a company ouch as Halls able to compete successfully in the market place and still retain its South Australian identity and ownership. I congratulate Halls on their 120th anniversary and hope that in the years to come they will continue to share in the prosperity of South Australia.
