M.C.D. Borden

Matthew Chaloner Durfee Borden (July 18, 1842 – May 27, 1912) was an American textile leader from Fall River, Massachusetts who, in 1880 reorganized the failed American Print Works into the American Printing Company.

In the years that followed, his company would grow to become the largest cloth-printing company in the world, earning him the nickname "the Calico King".

His father was Colonel Richard Borden, who founded the Fall River Iron Works.
