Moran & Cato was the largest chain of grocery stores in Australia in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century.
The partnership was established in Melbourne on 24 July 1881 when Frederick John Cato joined his cousin
Thomas Edwin Moran who ran two grocery stores in Fitzroy and Carlton .
Moran died in 1890 at the age of 30 and was succeeded by his widow. The following years saw expansion into
Tasmania and NSW and incorporation of the company in 1912. By 1935 the company was employing nearly one thousand people
and had about 120 branches in Victoria and Tasmania and 40 in New South Wales.
The company was taken over by Permewan Wright Ltd in 1969.
