Gunni Busck

His ambition was to become a medical doctor, but unfortunately, he had to abandon his studies due to illness at a young age.

[1] Busck was licensed as a businessman (grosserer) in Copenhagen in 1862 and engaged in the export of sweetened, canned butter to the tropics.

With its high standards for sanitary installations, quality control and supervision of livestock, it became a model for similar ventures in other Danish towns as well as abroad.

[1] He retired from the butter company in 1915 and both Københavns Mælkeforsyning and Solbjerg Dairy were sold to Det Danske Mælke-Compagni in 1916.

[1] Busck married Charlotte Ann Hutchinson (14 May 1838 – 4 August 1921), a daughter of timber merchant and Swedish-Norwegian vice-consul in Leith Thomas H. and Isabella Wight (c. 1810–95), on 4 January 1887 in Edinburgh.
