Morgan Williams Ltd (MWL) is a long-established department store in central Wellington and was for many years highly profitable. One way in which it rewarded its directors was to employ their children, who were students, over the summer break. The company paid these student-employees wages far in excess of market rates. In recent years, MWL became heavily reliant on cruise ship passengers to maintain its business. Due to the Covid 19 pandemic, the last cruise ship visited in March 2020.
