Havens-Samaira was a cannery in Campbell located in the former California Canneries plant just north of the Ainsley Cannery. The company was organized with $16,000 in stock subscribed, with John. W. Havens of Oakland and S. J. Samaira of San Francisco as the controlling interest, with other directors R.R. Cullen of San Francisco, M. Harris Callum of Oakland, and M. Samaira of San Francisco[1]. The company was created to operate the former California Canneries in Campbell which had gone bankrupt at the beginning of the depression. Dempsey-Callon operated the cannery in 1933 and 1934[2].
According to a newspaper report when they occupied the building, Havens had been operating the Sebatina Canning Company at Sonoma. S. J. Semaira had been importing and exporting dried fruit and nuts[3]
In December 1935, four peach growers in the Central Valley filed an involuntary bankruptcy petition against the company. The growers in Sutter and San Joaquin County accused the company of paying the Pacific Can Company instead of giving them proceeds. Roy C. Burks of Sutter County was owed $1159, Nanda Singh of Sutter County was owed $1303, Kisen Singh of San Joaquin County was owed $673, and Juana D. Singh of San Joaquin county was owed $3,478[4].
