I found a listing for "AORX" that says is was "Athens food and refining company". http://pwrr.org/rrm/rrma.htmlAORX ATHENS FOOD & REFINING CO., INC."Food and refining" seems an odd mix, but I assume they refined sugar, or refined vegetable oil.Can't find a reference for Athens Food and Refining, per se. A couple "Athens Foods" came up, along with a reference to Philadelphia, once known (maybe still is if you take a civics class in Philadelphia) as the "Athens of America."
"Food and Refining" could also be animal fats. Before modern processed vegetable oils, lard and tallow were a big business.
