Vestey's Meatworks was based at Bullocky Point in Darwin. The Meatworks opened in 1917 and closed in 1919 following a war over wages , a lack of stock, and corrupt dealings between government bodies, the Meatworks and Territory cattle station managers. The Northern Territory Archives holds the Vestey Bros ledger. See NTRS696 Meatworks Ledger, 1917-1925
