The firm of Jamieson, How & Co. was established around 1817 with Andrew Jamieson in Glasgow, his brother Robert in Calcutta and William M'Cracken in Liverpool. From 1835, Robert and Andrew became residents in Liverpool where the firm was under the name of Jamieson Brothers while it was under Jamieson, How & Co. in Glasgow.

The firm also had a branch at Calcutta, Hong Kong and Canton, while George Jamieson was the head of the branch in England.〔
The firm acquired the land Marine Lot 32 at the first land sale of June 1841 after Hong Kong was ceded to Britain from China in the First Opium War. James Frost Edger, who managed the firm in China until 1851 when he established a business on his own,〔 was appointed the first unofficial member of the Legislative Council of Hong Kong with David Jardine of the Jardine, Matheson & Co. in 1850.
