Company historyThe origin of the G.James Group of Companies began in 1913 when an enterprising George James arrived in Australia after migrating from England. After working for various building related companies in Brisbane, George decided to use his skills as a glazier, along with his knowledge of sales and purchasing, to establish G.James Glass Merchants at West End (Brisbane) in 1917. Initially the business was based on buying cases of glass and selling it cut-to-size to timber joiners in Queensland and New South Wales. Upon George's death in 1958 his son-in-law Joseph (Joe) Saragossi, together with his wife Pearle[2] and sister-in-law Gertie Baratin, founded a private company in 1959. In 2006, the company won an Australian Window Association (AWA) Design Award for the Best Use of Windows and Doors.[3] In June 2009, it lost a bid to supply glass for the Supreme and District Courts building in Brisbane. The winning bid was from a Chinese manufacturer.[4] References1. ^{{cite news|url=http://www.highbeam.com/doc/1G1-85187480.html|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121102180302/http://www.highbeam.com/doc/1G1-85187480.html|dead-url=yes|archive-date=2 November 2012|title=G James expansion has a touch of glass.|date=29 April 2002 |work=The Australian Financial Review via Australasian Business Intelligence |accessdate=14 December 2009}} 2. ^{{cite news|url=http://www.newstext.com.au/docs/CML/2005/get.jsp?docid=CML-20050507-1-026-4186454V17@QLD-METRO-2006-2005|title=Not just any old Joe|last=Houghton|first=Des|date= 7 May 2005 |work=The Courier Mail|accessdate=10 December 2009}} 3. ^{{cite news|url=https://www.dexigner.com/news/9438|title=Australian Window Association Design Award Winners Announced at Red Centre|date= 18 October 2006 |work=Dexigner|accessdate=10 December 2009}} 4. ^{{cite news|url=http://www.news.com.au/couriermail/story/0,23739,25596225-5007190,00.html |title=G.
