A firma anglo-americana Maxwell, Wright & Co. teve posicao de destaque nas rotas atlanticas de comércio a partir da cidade do Rio de Janeiro em meados do século XIX.

Nos anos 1840, a firma era a principal exportadora de café da praca carioca e de todo o Império. O presente trabalho visa a analisar a insercao dessa empresa estrangeira na economia brasileira das tres primeiras décadas do Brasil independente.
