Commissary department feeds the Isthmian Zone lavishly
The Isthmian Canal Commission runs a vast commissary network along the Panama Canal route. It supplies food and goods from Cristobal to dozens of stores, furnishes clothing and household items, and operates cold storage, bakeries, and laundries. The system serves about a million meals monthly and supports hotels and mess halls for white Americans, Europeans, and West Indians, with no duty on imported items.
