Marcus Bland
Marcus Henry Bland was an English merchant who founded the Bland Line in Gibraltar in 1810.
The business started as a small shipping agency, but later expanded into carrying supplies for the military garrison on the Rock. It was bought by Joseph and Emmanuel Gaggero in 1891.[1][2][3][4][5][6]
