Blue Anchor Exports is a trading company based in Theramore Isle that pursues various business ventures.
The company started as a small group of hard working friends running a tavern which is now the location they base their operations, brewing their own special ales and meads offering an appeasing selection of beverages to their guests, and clean, comfortable bedrooms are kept maintained offering a place for a good night's rest for weary travellers of all kinds.
The companies reputation grew fast, as did the amount of gold coins they would collect in their vault. The group with their new acquired wealth decided to broaden their means of trading, shipping their beverages to various ports around Azeroth where they would be brought to and sold in other taverns. As their reputation continued to grow, so did their methods of trading, and the demand for shipments were at an all time high. The company saw this as opportunity to venture out even further into the world of trading.
Trade routes from the docks have enabled the company to trade goods of all kinds between the ports of Kalimdor and Azeroth, trading with other companies, settlements, outposts, and the occasional lone traders and collectors. With measures in place to ensure that goods reach their destination safely and efficiently, the company strives to build and maintain relations with other merchant-types and to establish more trade routes around Azeroth, and to eventually open new trading hubs in the attempt to heighten, solidify, and necessitate their economic presence.

It's known for it's various home brewed beverages, and exotic beverages that arrive to the tavern in shipments from other ports around Azeroth.
"Great service, above-par food, and to-die-for mead! I question why you wouldn't want to visit The Blue Anchor. A good buddy o' mine told me about it last week, and I could scarcely believe him. He said that the employees were warm and friendly. What would I rate it? Easily a nine out of ten!"
"I haven't seen many taverns as class as this one. The owner, Miss Santiago, offers a wide variety of beverages like I've never tasted before; exotic brews, meads, ales, whiskeys, rums, lagers, draughts, wines, it's almost breathtaking, and I'll be damned if the service and atmosphere wasn't top-notch! I will definitely be visiting the Blue Anchor again on my travels."
"Hah, I've known the owner of this tavern for twenty damned years, so I suppose I'm a tad biased. Shei, Sheila, whatever you want to call her owns this place. I would agree with most people that she runs a business as honest as herself. The food is good, hell, I've helped prepare it a few times. The drinks are well-brewed, and the service is excellent!"
