Summary
Small independent dried fruit packer in San Jose. Abinante and Nola appeared just after the crash of the early 1930's; Sam Abinante, a former [[[California Packing Corporation]]] buyer, handled the business side, and Frank Nola handled the production side. Abinante and Nola was interesting because they switched between several packing houses in the Santa Clara Valley during their lifetime, often taking over properties either from packers that were going under or needed more space.
