• Overview

The company started selling imported sewing machines, and business machines, principally the Italian Olivetti typewriter. The Claude Wilson Corporation established its Cebu branch in 1957, at the center of Juan Luna and D. Jakosalem Streets, under the supervision of Mr. Juan Ross. Mr. Lou Da Costa was then General Manager of the Manila Head Office. In line with the government's call for the establishment of more factories, Mr. Wilson decided to manufacture instead of import sewing machines. This daring move was vigorously challenged by competitors who could import sewing machines more cheaply than to manufacture them. In 1961, Claude Wilson Corporation became Philippine Sewing Machines Manufacturing Corporation (PSMMC). The company head office was in Manila with branches in Cebu and Dagupan, locations designed to meet demands in Luzon and the southern part of the country. Martinez was transfered back to head office in Manila and A.F. Martelino was appointed Cebu Branch Manager.
