Context

Administrative/Biographical history:

Founded in 1920 as the Oil and Oilseed Brokers' Association, the National Association of United Kingdom Oil and Oilseed Brokers aimed to represent the interests of the trade generally, and specifically by the introduction of uniform contracts, rates of commission and bills of lading. Based at Baltic Exchange Chambers, 24 St. Mary Axe, it transferred the responsibility for its routine office work and administration to United Associations Ltd. (CLC/B/103-12) in 1923. The Association had branches in London, Liverpool and Hull (the latter known as the Hull Oil and Seed Brokers' Association until 1939) and was renamed the National Association of United Kingdom Oil and Oilseed Brokers in 1939. In 1971 it became part of the Federation of Oils, Seeds and Fat Associations.
