Magro Brothers Group of Companies is a private, family-owned organisation. It finds its roots in 1916 when three Magro brothers joined their father`s business as general provisions merchants.
In 1934 they ventured in the processing and canning of fresh tomatoes and subsequently branched into a number of other business activities including the importation into Malta of livestock, fodder and foodstuffs and exports of local agricultural produce.
In 1977, John and Michael Magro, the sons of one of the first partners, took over the running of the business and further expanded their activities to include tinplate can manufacture, food distribution, retailing, advertising & marketing, property development.
In 1995, the company moved to a purposely built factory with a covered area of 27,000 square metres which today has become a centre of excellence for food processing in the Mediterranean.
In December 2013, John and Michael, being the 3rd generation in the Magro Brothers business enterprise, transferred their shares to John’s children namely, Christian, Nicholas and Joanna. Christian was appointed C.E.O. of the Group in January 2018 while John remains chairman of the Group and Michael continues to form part of the main board of directors.
The backbone of the food sector of Magro Brothers Group of Companies is still the processing of fresh tomatoes – Magro Brothers (Foods) Ltd is the major company within the group. It is one of the few local companies which handle the whole production cycle of tomato related products, from the growing of crops to the distribution of the finished product.
