quote from The Immigrant World of Ybor City (Florida) by Gary R. Mormino and George E. Pozzetta " Nicolo Geraci exemplified the traditional hand-over-hand mobility from peddler to wholesaler. A native of Contessa Entellina, Geraci pursued the calling many paesani followed in New Orleans. Beginning his career with a horse and wagon, selling produce in Hyde Park, he saved enough money to open a small store on Seventh Avenue and Twenty-third Street. By 1921 he had expanded his business, dealing increasingly on a wholesale basis and erecting one of the largest cold-storage plants in Florida. By the 1920Łus Geraci 1920Łus Geraci could process fifty carloads of fruit and produce. In addition to harvesting FloridaŁus bountiful orchards and fields, the Geraci family helped inaugurated international trade in commodities such as bananas. The family incorporated the American Fruit and Steamship Company for this purpose."
