Global Trading was one of two Global Trading Company outlets in New York City, the other being located in Little Italy. It was run by Moley Christensen. Christensen freely allowed 'Irish' Jack Dougan to run his liquor racket from the building's storage room due to his foolish admiration for the Tattaglia family. Dougan's drinking nearly sank the business, and it was only saved by the intervention of the Corleone family, who took over management in 1946.
