Broad Oak Calico Printing Works

Does anyone have ancestors who went out to work in Bazil during the 1920's?.
My grandfather was offered a job out there whilst being employed at Broad Oak. He went out there 3 times in space of 10 years. I know he was not the only one. Some men took their families, I recall a family named Harrison being mentioned by my mother.
