Enigheden

A call for better wages and working conditions from the company's wagoners was rejected by Gunni Busck, prompting them to contact Arbejdsmændenes fagforening (from 1897: Dansk Arbejdsmands Forbund).

Gunni Busck reacted by initiating a lockout and recruiting people from farms in the vicinity of Copenhagen to do their work.

At another meeting, held at Gammel Kro in Smallegade on 20 November 1896, some of the wagoners presented the idea of establishing their own dairy distribution company.

The idea won the support of Lyngsie and Mælkeriet Enigheden was established as a limited company (aktieselskab on 29 December 1906.

The new enterprise tried to purchase uniforms for the wagoners in Holger Petersen's clothing store on Købmagergade but he refused to do business with socialists and a contract was instead closed with Seifert in Tegnegade.

Frederik Ludwig Georg Duus from Kastrup Glasværk was initially also reluctant to do business with the new company but he was ultimately convinced by a down payment of DKK 3,000 to deliver the necessary milk bottles.

This problem was in 1898 solved by Lyngsie by entering into a 10-year partnership with Det Danske Mælke Compagnie, a newly established company with plenty of capital but still only a small customer base.

As part of the agreement Mælkeriet Enigheden moved its operations to Det Danske Mælke Compagnie's site on Solbjergvej.
