What you should know about Dominion Trading Co Limited
In 1936 Dominion Trading Co was registered as a limited liability company in Christchurch, by his son, Albert Vance Stewart Vance . Vance Stewart was widely respected in the scrap industry and put in place the solid foundations of the company. The Second World War provided its’ share of both opportunities and challenges. During this time of petrol rationing, the around the town pickups were made using a horse and dray. The original premises at 166 Madras St, Christchurch, had their own stables.
Rusty old ships, themselves requisitioned for scrap, were filled with steel and then sailed to Japan where the scrap was re used in the manufacture and re establishment of Japan’s buildings and factories. In 1998 the company moved to its present site in Blenheim Road and Nathan, Ben and Vance Abraham Stewart became the fourth generation to join the company. In recent years the company has continued to install new plant to satisfy our customer’s needs. Because of this, we can achieve the high standard of manufactured product expected by foundries throughout the world.
Today this family business proudly based in Christchurch is now managed by Vance Stewart former All Black team player and Canterbury Coach . Despite the Christchurch Earthquakes the business is fully functional and operating with no disruption or damage. The business not only specialises in the recovery and recycling of non ferrous metals such as copper, aluminium, brass, stainless steel and lead but is also recognised as New Zealand’s leading national collection agency for used automotive batteries for recycling. In 1998 the business of New Zealand Copper Granulating was acquired by Dominion Trading to further enhance and complement the businesses capabilities. New Zealand Copper Granulating specialises in the recovery of copper and aluminium from processing electrical cable.
At the close of the Second World War we were commissioned to dismantle all the steel from the gun turrets and battlements throughout New Zealand
