I think I have found the jeweler Urban Casavant was talking about in his 2003 PR’s about possibly branding the Casavant brand.
When I reviewed the Shareholders listing I was looking for stuff to make my posting for tonight however what I found was stuff that confused me,.. Names and companies I have never seen before,.. Then this:
01/ 22/ 03 ~ FAMCO Holding Company FL 20, 000, 000
01/ 22/ 03 ~ FAMCO Holding Company FL 20, 000, 000
01/ 22/ 03 ~ FAMCO Holding Company FL 20, 000, 000
01/ 22/ 03 ~ FAMCO Holding Company FL 20, 000, 000
01/ 22/ 03 ~ FAMCO Holding Company FL 20, 000, 000
Which at the time in 2003 was a lot of shares to be issued considering the grand total at that time was only a little over 7 billion.
So I did a Search and found the Name Al Futtaim attached to the FAMCO abreviations on the net,.. when I searched him I found this:
