Now dissolved, the need for a B&S office in Russia increased from 1914 onwards as a result of the growing tea trade via Korea to Vladivostock. Issues over Russian taxes on foreign companies led to the establishment of B&S Russia for a short period of time from 1917.
This series comprises the few papers relating to the operations of Butterfield & Swire in Russia that have survived. It is unlikely that any further records will be added in the future.
