Context

Administrative/Biographical history:

The company was established in about 1800 as Dyer, Wyld and Jeve of Bristol, and was later known as Wyld and Company Limited, of Bath Street, Bristol. It was taken over by Charles Kinloch and Company Limited in 1962 as a non-trading subsidiary. The name was changed to Arthur Cooper (Wine Merchant) Limited in 1978 to avoid loss of name (which was previously used from 1961 by Carlos and Thrale Ltd). There may be some confusion over name changes so researchers are advised to investigate further.
