Ngā tapanga o te kamupene Gear Meat, 1890–1920

Collection of decorative 'Gear' company meat labels

Nā te āheinga kia tuku mīti tio ki Ingarangi i te tau 1882, ka piki te ōhanga o Aotearoa. Ka huaki anō ngā mākete ki tāwāhi mō te pata me te tīhi. Ka hua ngā ahuwhenua o Aotearoa, ka ita te hononga ki Ingarangi – te mākete nui rawa – kātahi ka kaha ake te ōhanga. Tū ai te whare patu mīti o Gear ki Te Whanganui-a-Tara. Ki reira whakatiohia ai te mīti, ka purua rānei ki roto puoto hei hoko ki tāwāhi. Koinei ētahi o ngā tapanga kei ngā puoto o te kamupene o Gear.
