Definición

  • North America's oldest continuously operating commercial enterprise, the Hudson's Bay Company (HBC), officially known as The Governor and Company of Adventurers of England trading into Hudson's Bay, was founded on May 2, 1670, to trade with aboriginals in Canada, mostly for furs. At one time the HBC was the world's largest landowner, controlling the massive drainage area around the Hudson's Bay known as Rupert's Land.
